Hmmm. The CG is all wrong for it to be stable in the intake duct. The
left rear upper corner of the container, which would need to be inside
the duct, and so restrain the container from rotating out, is actually
outside. It would have to be VERY firmly wedged at the other contact
points, but I don't see any distortion in the duct wall at the contact
point on the left. At the angle the container rests, the right upper
corner is inside the duct, but the container walls slope outwards in
relation to the duct, so that corner would not prevent the container
from rotating down on the other two pivot points.

Apparently not. It was not sucked in, but rather
blown in by another aircraft on the ramp. It was
at gatwick I think.
