If visiting Addis Be Warned! On the apron there are a lot of nice big black and yellow chocks lying around, it is very tempting to use them whilst parking on the sloping apron. They belong to Ethiopian Airlines who will remove them in the night leaving your aircraft parked on the considerable slope without chocks!
Use your own chocks there whatever you do!
