THE SCHEDULED ALL CARGO FLT WAS HOLDING ON A TAXIWAY SHORT OF THE RWY AWAITING ITS IFR CLEARANCE OUT OF THE HUB ARPT. SUDDENLY THE ACFT DIPPED DOWN AT THE NOSE AND THEN THE YOKE JUMPED REARWARD AND HIT THE PLT IN THE CHEST. THE PLT CALLED GROUND CONTROL AND REQUESTED TAXI BACK TO THE RAMP. THE PLT DID NOT INFORM GROUND CONTROL THAT A COLLISION BETWEEN THE TWO COMPANY AIRCRAFT HAD OCCURRED. EACH AIRCRAFT WAS TAXIED BACK TO THE RAMP UNDER ITS OWN POWER WITHOUT BENEFIT OF ANY EXTERNAL EXAMINATION BY ANYONE.
