Still trying to verify information about this incident involving a Jambojet Q400 that seems to have rolled into the flagpoles at the VIP state pavillion at JKIA. Interim info indicates it was parked overnight with no chokes and no brakes engaged, which sounds unbelievable. pic.twitter.com/8MrtYHkxZy
