Narrative:
We flew flight from atl to csg. After an uneventful flight we parked in the prescribed place, did our postflt duties and shut down checklist, then went to the hotel for our overnight. At XA50 the station personnel called me at the hotel and informed me that our aircraft had rolled into a ditch. Upon arrival at the airport we discovered that the plane had not been chocked the night before. My solution to problems such as this is to give ramp personnel checklists just like the flcs.
