A. If the airplane is temporary stored in the open air, it should always be anchored. Strong wind and
gusts of wind can cause great damage to an aircraft, which is not securely anchored.
B. When the aircraft is parked for a longer duration (over night etc.) it is recommended to use a
hangar when ever that is possible.
