Post-apocalyptic takeoff. How to fly from an abandoned airport?

Without electricity? You're bump-starting any piston-engined cars/trucks if you're lucky. And all APUs/jet engines need some kind of external power source, electricity for APUs and usually a bleed air system for jet engines, but you'll still need electricity within certain voltages and amps for the FADECs anyway.
