Unfallbericht:
The pilot reported that he parked the airplane and shut down the requisite systems, then proceeded to the back of the airplane to allow the passengers to disembark and set the wheel chocks. He reported that as he began to open the cabin door, he realized that the airplane was rolling backwards. The airplane rolled into the wall of the airport terminal and the left and right elevators sustained substantial damage.
Probable Cause: "The pilot's failure to actuate the parking brake prior to leaving his seat, resulting in substantial damage."
