Narrative:

A cpr mdt jet, with an angry, delayed pilot -- in bad WX (blowing snow, recent heavy snowfall, snow/ice on ramp) goosed the aircraft to taxi (1/4 to full power), blowing my parked, unattended small aircraft sideways from jet blast and damaging the landing gear, etc. Jet pilots must be aware of what is behind them when pwring up, this one wasn't. A jerk jet jock damaged my aircraft due to his negligent inattn. Fancy jets don't own the ramp or the sky. Jet jocks must learn this and beware of danger their jet blast poses to other aircraft near their jets. Careless and reckless use of great amount of jet power can/does damage other aircraft and can cause injuries and/or death. Callback conversation with reporter revealed the following information: reporter, a lawyer, did not see incident happen but interviewed 2 witness after the fact. The landing gear door seemed canted to him and he therefore thought there was landing gear damage. 2 inspections showed that there was actually no damage to the aircraft. These inspections cost considerable money and the owner of the FBO picked up the tab. The FBO wanted no trouble with the light transport pilot because he was a good customer.

Original NASA ASRS Text

Title: CPR MDT JET BLASTS A PARKED SMA CAUSING IT TO SLIDE SIDEWAYS ON THE RAMP.

Narrative: A CPR MDT JET, WITH AN ANGRY, DELAYED PLT -- IN BAD WX (BLOWING SNOW, RECENT HVY SNOWFALL, SNOW/ICE ON RAMP) GOOSED THE ACFT TO TAXI (1/4 TO FULL PWR), BLOWING MY PARKED, UNATTENDED SMA SIDEWAYS FROM JET BLAST AND DAMAGING THE LNDG GEAR, ETC. JET PLTS MUST BE AWARE OF WHAT IS BEHIND THEM WHEN PWRING UP, THIS ONE WASN'T. A JERK JET JOCK DAMAGED MY ACFT DUE TO HIS NEGLIGENT INATTN. FANCY JETS DON'T OWN THE RAMP OR THE SKY. JET JOCKS MUST LEARN THIS AND BEWARE OF DANGER THEIR JET BLAST POSES TO OTHER ACFT NEAR THEIR JETS. CARELESS AND RECKLESS USE OF GREAT AMOUNT OF JET PWR CAN/DOES DAMAGE OTHER ACFT AND CAN CAUSE INJURIES AND/OR DEATH. CALLBACK CONVERSATION WITH RPTR REVEALED THE FOLLOWING INFO: RPTR, A LAWYER, DID NOT SEE INCIDENT HAPPEN BUT INTERVIEWED 2 WITNESS AFTER THE FACT. THE LNDG GEAR DOOR SEEMED CANTED TO HIM AND HE THEREFORE THOUGHT THERE WAS LNDG GEAR DAMAGE. 2 INSPECTIONS SHOWED THAT THERE WAS ACTUALLY NO DAMAGE TO THE ACFT. THESE INSPECTIONS COST CONSIDERABLE MONEY AND THE OWNER OF THE FBO PICKED UP THE TAB. THE FBO WANTED NO TROUBLE WITH THE LTT PLT BECAUSE HE WAS A GOOD CUSTOMER.
