Narrative:
It happened at atl on dec/mon/93. I was instructed to taxi to and hold short of runway 8L. Once I reached the 8L hold line, I was then cleared across 8L and to hold short of 8R. After I crossed 8L I came to a full stop behind an air carrier Y. The distance was approximately 350 ft. As the air carrier Y started to move across runway 8R the left wing of my small aircraft X was lifted into the air. The right wingtip and nose was forced to the ground. While I shut the engine down the jet blast had dissipated enough that the tail came back down. After the airplane came back to rest on the landing gear, all 3 blades of the propeller were bent back, the right wingtip fairing was broken and the leading edge of the wing near the tip was damaged. The air carrier Y taxied on unaware of any damage they had caused. The tower did not acknowledge or see the incident but only gave me a clearance to takeoff. After reporting the damage to the tower, a security officer was sent out to examine the damage. The security officer went to get a tug and escorted my aircraft back to FBO. I believe that if the pilot or operator of a large turbine aircraft was informed of a light aircraft behind them, they could exercise more caution.

Title: SMA SEL IS BLOWN UP ON THE PROP AND WING WHILE HOLDING ON TXWY FOR TKOF BY AN LGT ACR ACFT TAXIING INTO POS FOR TKOF.
Narrative: IT HAPPENED AT ATL ON DEC/MON/93. I WAS INSTRUCTED TO TAXI TO AND HOLD SHORT OF RWY 8L. ONCE I REACHED THE 8L HOLD LINE, I WAS THEN CLRED ACROSS 8L AND TO HOLD SHORT OF 8R. AFTER I CROSSED 8L I CAME TO A FULL STOP BEHIND AN ACR Y. THE DISTANCE WAS APPROX 350 FT. AS THE ACR Y STARTED TO MOVE ACROSS RWY 8R THE L WING OF MY SMA X WAS LIFTED INTO THE AIR. THE R WINGTIP AND NOSE WAS FORCED TO THE GND. WHILE I SHUT THE ENG DOWN THE JET BLAST HAD DISSIPATED ENOUGH THAT THE TAIL CAME BACK DOWN. AFTER THE AIRPLANE CAME BACK TO REST ON THE LNDG GEAR, ALL 3 BLADES OF THE PROP WERE BENT BACK, THE R WINGTIP FAIRING WAS BROKEN AND THE LEADING EDGE OF THE WING NEAR THE TIP WAS DAMAGED. THE ACR Y TAXIED ON UNAWARE OF ANY DAMAGE THEY HAD CAUSED. THE TWR DID NOT ACKNOWLEDGE OR SEE THE INCIDENT BUT ONLY GAVE ME A CLRNC TO TKOF. AFTER RPTING THE DAMAGE TO THE TWR, A SECURITY OFFICER WAS SENT OUT TO EXAMINE THE DAMAGE. THE SECURITY OFFICER WENT TO GET A TUG AND ESCORTED MY ACFT BACK TO FBO. I BELIEVE THAT IF THE PLT OR OPERATOR OF A LARGE TURBINE ACFT WAS INFORMED OF A LIGHT ACFT BEHIND THEM, THEY COULD EXERCISE MORE CAUTION.
