Narrative:
A few mins prior to departure the cha ground handler briefed the captain on the power-back procedures to be used. A normal power back maneuver was accomplished with an approximately 90 degree turn to the right (tail right). As we commenced our normal taxi the ground controller advised us that a small aircraft had been blown over, possibly due to our jet blast. Normal to below normal power was used throughout the power-back due to the light gross weight of the aircraft (126600#).

Narrative: A FEW MINS PRIOR TO DEP THE CHA GND HANDLER BRIEFED THE CAPT ON THE PWR-BACK PROCS TO BE USED. A NORMAL PWR BACK MANEUVER WAS ACCOMPLISHED WITH AN APPROX 90 DEG TURN TO THE RIGHT (TAIL RIGHT). AS WE COMMENCED OUR NORMAL TAXI THE GND CTLR ADVISED US THAT A SMA HAD BEEN BLOWN OVER, POSSIBLY DUE TO OUR JET BLAST. NORMAL TO BELOW NORMAL PWR WAS USED THROUGHOUT THE PWR-BACK DUE TO THE LIGHT GROSS WT OF THE ACFT (126600#).
