TNT Express set a new Guinness World Record at its Liege, Belgium, hub by loading 30 Mercedes Smart Cars in a 747F in 35 minutes and 34 seconds. Th e feat was an event for TopGear Italia, an off shoot of the popular BBC TV car enthusiast show. To celebrate 10 years of the program, the Italian editors wanted to see how many cars could fit. Seven ground staff had a three-hour window to load, unload and then re-load the aircraft with real shipments before it departed for Shanghai.
