Question for BD-700 Global Express Pilots

.... Shutting up the aircraft and setting trim to a fully negative position?

Over the past few years I've noticed several Bombardier BD-700 Global Express aircraft parked up with their horizontal stabilizer drooping down at a fully negative position. Is this company policy? A safety measure in strong winds?

I've never noticed any other type of aircraft parked up with their horizontal stabilizer at a fully negative position like this, so the issue seems to be unique to Bombardier Global Express aircraft only.

If you have any information that could answer this question, I'd really appreciate it if you could reply to this thread.

Thanks for taking time to read this.
