That’s an expensive oopsie! Maybe more wheel chocks next time? Or some type of tie-down?

Wheel chocks don’t do anything once the plane is perpendicular to them

i’ve hear d they have some extra planes sitting around so missing those two for repairs shouldn’t be an issue

I agree there.  But maybe they didn’t realize just how bad this storm would be?  I don’t know.  Just a weird situation

Why does it seem like it was going into the wind? Are we sure this is an accident and not some plane on plane aggression?
