JUST AFTER THE PLT BEGAN THE TAKEOFF ROLL, THE RIGHT MAIN LANDING GEAR COLLAPSED. AN EXAM REVEALED THAT OVERLOAD FAILURE OF THE RIGHT MAIN LANDING GEAR TRUNION TUBE HAD OCCURRED. THERE WAS EVIDENCE THAT THE OVERLOAD RESULTED FROM EITHER A PREVIOUS HARD LANDING OR FROM A FORK LIFT COLLIDING WITH THE AIRCRAFT WHILE IT WAS BEING LOADED.
