Default Re: Q400 Makes a Visit to Manassas

In my FBOs hangar today, pre-flighting a cessna for a lesson and I hear a low rumble, but the engines sound bigger than normal aircraft at Manassas. Walk out the door to the ramp and the Q is taxiing around.

Im guessing the MX guys where practicing taxiing the thing. They crossed both runways and came over to the opposite side of the airport to where colgan is. Went up and down the taxiways, and then went into the run-up area that we use and shut down the engines. We did our run up right next to it. It actually is beginning to look kind of small compared to what I first thought about it.

Also looks like they are taking it EVERYWHERE:
