....... earlier somebody made a description why it is sometimes necessary to park the aircraft nose in.
So why is it sometimes necessary? An aircraft in a walled off run-up pad should be backed in. Anything else is nonsense. It's easy to check which is right. Just note the end with the very expensive blast deflectors and put the pointy part of the aircraft at the other end.

Not like so .......
