I'm standing in the run-up area area today getting ready to test my ECUs (bring up the power to 40%, 2 ECUs per engine so this test has to be done 4 times) and then do an available power check as I see a 172 taxi in. I was the only one in the run-up area (there was one more 172 but he was holding short so he does not count) and the run-up area can fit 10+ planes. Of all the places he decided to park right behind me. So I'm looking back and thinking "is this guy an idiot?", he had to try to fit in there because there was not much room left and there is no way he accidentally ended up being there.
I figured he was the one who parked there so I should just continue doing what I'm doing. Do my ECU tests, look back at him he still did not realize that he should not be there. After that I figured fine I'll move, get right next to him and finish all the stuff then leave.
So I'm thinking, should I have moved before doing any tests or should I have just finished everything there and ignored him completely?
