Just a few discussion points-

Chocks are not a big deal, I have pushed right over them on an unlit remote parking area and did not feel a thing with a little momentum.

A stuck chock is not a big deal unless you are trying to capture a TLD and the chocks on the NLG are stuck.

Why does SOP for bogies have us all chocking the tires (tyres) fore and aft, if we just threw 2 chocks between the mains the aircraft would have to jump 2 chocks instead of 1 and they would be easier to handle.
