Default 737 Blown Across Ramp

Anyone who watched the Bears game on Sunday and saw Brent Fabre say that it
was the coldest game he'd ever played it knows that it was an absolute ice
rink at Midway. You could have set those brakes at a thousand psi and that
sucker would have fancydanced across the ice in that wind.

No chocks, only tiedowns could have kept that aircraft from moving.

What do you want to bet that the brakes weren't set?


That would be odd. Why would the brakes be set if no one was on board?
Makes it a bit tough to tow.

I hear chalks fix the problem.
