Thought I may have mistakenly boarded a Deathstar A330 last Tuesday evening for my late evening flight to Rockvegas!
The first 4 rows on the Q400 were empty with pax filling seats from row 5 for a fairly fully loaded aircraft. I can only assume that this must have been full of mainly daytripping bizoids with no hold-luggage, so they needed to pack from aft to keep within trim.
After takeoff, many pax up front then moved forward to the seat of their choice, so the balance couldn't be that crook.
Hope they don't keep this balancing act as a regular feature of the Q400 as I haven't seen this before on my many Q400 flights.
