The DH8-300's don't push from gates A1-8, but on occasion the Q400's push off those gates, that could be where the confusion is coming from.

Yeah that seems to support the 2 hour delay; if it was just blown over they would have been on their merry way but they must've swapped aircraft.

Same buddy after correcting his story said the tail has a pretty good gouge in it.

I am too lazy to go back and get a link but American is keeping the new tail design. 52% of the votes were for it.

Plane was being towed to the parking pad by the tow crew. It had a bit of a layover before it's next leg, and the gate was going to be needed before the Dash 8 was going to leave again. Hence the reason it was being backed/pushed away from that door.

Richard Branson's Falcon 50 M-VGIN is apparently parked at the Shell Aerocentre today. Is he in town for something?
