Considering the military generally recruits people who have nothing else going for them, I can imagine they just keep forgetting to put the planes in park
Not far from the truth, long deployments and exhaustion will lead to negligence. The previous one was due to an arrestment failure, so the plane couldn’t hook on and overshot the deck, but I would not be surprised if someone forgot to secure some chains and a plane rolled off for the one before that.
