DISCOKID
Some manufacturers ferry the aircraft themselves for some airlines,i.e. DHC ex Downsview in Canada.Dash 8's are regularly seen ferrying through NCL and MAN on delivery using DHC flight numbers.A recent example was a Dash 8 on it's way to Japan via NCE then via Brindisi,Egypt,Sharjah,India,Nepal etc,etc.I gues it would take about a week to get there from Canada.
