The student pilot was taxiing for takeoff when he saw a large twin-engine turboprop airplane sitting on a runup pad next to the taxiway he was using. He said he stopped before passing behind the turboprop airplane and observed the propellers turning slowly. The pilot said he taxied behind the airplane and heard an increase in engine power. He said he tried to get past the area where his airplane was experiencing the other airplane's propwash, but was unable to do so. As he turned onto the taxiway leading to the active runway, his airplane was blown over. The pilot did not make contact with the pilot of the turboprop airplane before taxiing behind it.
Probable Cause: the student pilot's inadvertent encounter with the propblast from another airplane. A factor relating to the accident was: failure of the student to communicate with the pilot(s) of the other airplane before taxiing behind it.
