Pre-2019 there was a Decision about the status of parked cars. As far as I recall, there were no Decisions covering parked aeroplanes.

Parked cars, and parked airplanes by analogy, are TIOs if they can't be moved.

Sometimes some people take things too seriously.

You did post this in the Rules and Handicapping forum? Maybe it should have been in the Laughter section if there wasn't a Rules implication?

If you are a qualified pilot, the keys are in it you and you can fly it out, it's movable but if you don't know your joystick from your handbrake, it's immovable. No need to panic though; it's nothing to flap about.

I don't know whether to be more amazed by the pilot (was that hop, skip and a jump past the clubhouse skill or luck?); or by the golfer who just stands there watching a plane coming in his direction and doesn't run; or to be somewhat sceptical about the remarkable chance that someone just happened to be on the spot with his phone camera on video and focused on the very place where the plane entered the scene?

Play might be suspended until it was removed?

It would depend on whether there was a Local Rule in place giving relief from deep ruts.
