Narrative:

Problem: not enough room for aircraft to perform a run-up without blocking taxiway. Backed up aircraft to allow other aircraft to get to runway. During backup, aircraft turned so as to point the tail toward a small aircraft. The small aircraft was blown onto wing tip and propeller during run-up. Corrective action: better judgement in where tail of aircraft is pointing when positioning for run-up in tight places. Keep all small aircraft tied down when unattended while parked in an area where large aircraft are operating.

Title: AIR STREAM FROM ACFT RUNNING UP BLEW OVER PARKED SMA, UNATTENDED.

Narrative: PROBLEM: NOT ENOUGH ROOM FOR ACFT TO PERFORM A RUN-UP WITHOUT BLOCKING TXWY. BACKED UP ACFT TO ALLOW OTHER ACFT TO GET TO RWY. DURING BACKUP, ACFT TURNED SO AS TO POINT THE TAIL TOWARD A SMALL ACFT. THE SMALL ACFT WAS BLOWN ONTO WING TIP AND PROP DURING RUN-UP. CORRECTIVE ACTION: BETTER JUDGEMENT IN WHERE TAIL OF ACFT IS POINTING WHEN POSITIONING FOR RUN-UP IN TIGHT PLACES. KEEP ALL SMALL ACFT TIED DOWN WHEN UNATTENDED WHILE PARKED IN AN AREA WHERE LARGE ACFT ARE OPERATING.
