Park in an appropriate area, considering the safety of nearby persons and property.
Park in an appropriate area, considering the safety of nearby persons and property.
Bottom line
Unless parking in a designated, supervised area, the pilot should select a location and heading that prevents propeller or jet blast of other airplanes from striking the airplane unnecessarily. Whenever possible, the airplane should be parked headed into the existing or forecast wind. The pilot should ensure that enough space is allocated to the airplane so it is free from any impact to the hangar, another aircraft, or vehicle.
