How do you know he didn't look or listen? If you can't see much of the
taxiway from the departure end of 4 because of a hangar, then obviously you
can't see the departure end of runway 4 from much of the taxiway. Just
because you're speaking into the microphone doesn't mean you're
broadcasting.
My fault... I miskeyed. Let me try again.
I was rolling for takeoff on 32. He was on a perpendicular taxiway
and taxied right out in front of me, headed for 4. If he had looked
before crossing 32, he'd have seen a propellor headed for him at
takeoff power. I'm guessing he didn't look or he would have stopped
short of 32.
The hangars are a bit of a factor in that you can't see the end of 32
(that's the part I mistyped) until you clear them on the taxiway for
4, but there's still plenty of room if you're even romotely awake.
