Quite normal for freight a/c to have these stands fitted while they are being loaded, otherwise they will tip backwards if the tail is filled first, then the front. Interesting that it says 'wing' on it.. as I've only ever seen them used at the rear under the APU (as it is in the photo).
If you don't use them, you will end up like this:
![]()
