Totally. That's what we do. Crank it up and do a high pressure flow to get the cabin cool. Of course, our bins open on the left and not the right. Dunno how that would work for some other regional aircraft, but if it's an option ya gotta do what ya gotta do, right? Kellwolf- On the 737 I do remember once having the #1 running at the gate on a turn as the APU took a crap and the ground power wouldn't work when we went to plug it in. Hence they couldn't shut down, but the cabin was perfectly cool.
