I think you will find that the prohibition (cell phone use in aircraft) only
applies while in flight. On the ground, their use is no different than if
you're sitting outside the airplane on the wing or in the FBO's facilities,
for instance.

The reason the FCC prohibits cell phone use in an airplane when it's in
flight is to keep your phone from grabbing nearly every cell in your neck of
the woods in line of sight and swamping the local system.
