Look at the photo, close your eyes and then imagine this...
The transport plane is a Janus on finals to 04.
The workers on the runway represent a high wing Tecnam taking a short cut across the grass runway to refuel.
Why would they take a short cut you might ask??
Well...people being what they are will look to save time especially if they are running late.
There will be no requirement to request taxi instructions from ATC because gliding is in operation and the manoeurving area will have been relinquished by ATC.
A Janus (or any other glider) has a very thin profile and the visiting Tecnam pilot won't fully understand what to look for or where...
Now remind me why we want 9 hangers down the side of 04/22???
