Narrative:
The empty, disabled, parking airplane started to move and rolled for several meters out of its parking position. It was finally stopped by a fence and suffered slight damage to an engine. The parking brakes were activated and chock blocks applied during parking. First investigations suggest that strong wind and a slippery, icy apron surface may have caused the unanticipated movement.
