a mechanic was working on a boeing 747 at the Pinal air park near
Marana, Arizona, north of Tucson on west side of I-10 when the nose gear
collapsed trapping the worker in the wheel well. workers had to use a
crane to raise the aircraft and free the worker. he was transported to
hospital in critical condition

As a side note, It is SOP at most airlines that the gear is pinned
when maintenence is being performed. Wonder if they have this policy
at these storage facilities. Hope the guy makes it.
