Narrative:The aircraft (C-FKFP) was parked on the southwest ramp of Hamilton Airport, Canada (in position #9, close to the main gate and not marked with pylons). A second Boeing aircraft was parked in the #4 position, leaving little room for the ground vehicle operators to manoeuvre equipment around the aircraft. A K-Loader operator was injured as the K-Loader he was on passed directly beneath the port wing. The driver suffered a head injury and was eventually taken to hospital while the aircraft experienced damage to the port wing flaps, fuel dump port, hydraulics and skin.
