Contexto
During engine start and taxiing, the airplane did not show any abnormal characteristics. The way in which the cargo moved from its position during the take-off run and the fact tiiat all locks on the right hand side were found in the open position leads to the assumption that the pallet had not been locked. This pallet was the only one which had not been moved from its position during the whole off-load and on-load procedure.
