In preparation for departure the aircraft was pushed back from the stand to the centre of the apron where the pilot applied and locked the brakes. A member of the ground crew proceeded to disconnect the tow bar and whilst he was doing this the driver of the tug vehicle left the tug in order to assist his colleague. As the tow bar was disconnected the tug rolled forward and struck the nose of the aircraft. The aircraft was returned to the stand where inspection revealed considerable damage to the radome.
