140 also running down the Marston Meysey end

[Lossie15]

Anyone else thinking these could be maintenance ground runs?

[Rob666]

I am not aware of them having to be fully crewed just for ground runs but could be wrong.

Presumably you mean a GPU as an APU is normally fitted internally to the airframe.
