Best Answer

If you are talking about a non-governmental airfield, you should always try to keep an absolute minimum of 15-20 feet between you and your aircraft. Pull around the front of the plane and give PLENTY of space between you and the wing. Pilots have a tendency to get very irritated when people hug the edge of the plane. Make sure to park in an area near the aircraft that the aircraft can still pull out without having any need to avoid your vehicle. So you should usually park on the hangar side, rather than the airstrip side.

Military vehicles are required to have communication with the tower or flight line control, receive permission to enter aircraft parking areas, and are not allowed to come in contact with any aircraft that has not been electrically grounded.
