Default RE: Mind that throttle!

At our field there are no tables or permanent structures. We rope tie to stakes but a injure a year seems to occur. Yesterday I heard an engine rev up in pits areas so looked over and watched a 91 FS going rite at the guy. Boy did he jump out of the way. After all settled down he swore it was tied but he just forgot too… revved for engine check out and just about lost his leg. Sometimes safety procedures cause complacency.
