As we passed the terminal on the downwind leg following the GA a TAP aircraft was taxying past it so must have used the full length of the runway, as we did.
Quite often the A-32x I usually get turns off at the mid-point exit straight in to the terminal area. I didn't note the wind on this occasion, it was probably very light.
Perhaps it was just being sat close to the ground in the ATR but it did appear to taxi very fast compared to the larger aircraft I usually fly in, until we got behind the "Follow me" truck which was very sedate!
