    I suspect this is probably a MSFS issue, but just in case...

    My beautiful Bonanza is parked on the hard standing with the parking brake set while I contemplate whether or not it is too windy to fly today. I mean, it's only a little 18kt wind ... gusting 25kts admittedly... and the aircraft is already rocking its wings as if she's keen to get into the air... The chocks are still in place as I haven't decided we're going yet ... oh wait, no, they're not in place... Better put them back, there that's better ... but wait, they've gone again!...

    So, high winds and the chocks don't stay in place. Interestingly the aircraft is being blown very, very slowly onto the grass INTO THE WIND ... so clearly there is something very wrong with Asobo's ground and wind physics.

      Chocks are being removed because the sim thinks the aircraft is moving due to the high winds.

        Just yet another total failure by Asobo in 2024? The idea that a 25kt wind can blow an aircraft (with parking brake set!) across the apron is bad enough, but to actually make it blow UPWIND ... AGAINST THE WIND ... is totally reprehensible! I love this sim, but some of the programmers need a career change!
