I wonder how many light aircraft at Essendon did not have their rudder chocked and therefore may have internal damage such as cable break or stretch. There is a CAO (?) somewhere - or used to be, anyway) that says an LAME must check any unrestrained control surfaces if the winds exceed 30 knots (?) including gusts. TEM is a good reason to install rudder chocks.
