After engine start, with the engines idling and the pilot's feet on the brakes, the pilot turned his attention to the inside of the cabin to complete some checks. A short time later, he noticed the aircraft was moving, so he reduced power and applied the brakes. Before the aircraft was brought to a stop, the left propeller struck a tyre that was being used as a marker at the edge of the parking bay. He could only find a slight amount of damage to the propeller and decided to commence the planned return trip to Moorabbin. No further incident occurred during the return flight, however further damage was revealed during a subsequent engineering inspection.
