arj - sorry, not AVRO specific - it seems some airports the taxiing takes more time than the flight itself. DTW used to take forever (I've only been thru once since new terminal opened). And MSP, my usual connecting airport, is generally good, but lately the enforced bus rides and the seeming two mile trek from Terminal A to planes going anywhere reasonable is wearing on me.

All in all, I'd rather be in an AVRo than a Saab , DC9 or CRJ (my usual other choices)
