Europe needs NOTHING but PEACE!!

[@waxbuzzard]

Boeing engineer here. That Airbus is a BEAST!! :-)

[@domipa3972]

Merci aux britanniques de faire la pub pour l'A 400 M. On eut aimé que l'Armée de l'Air et de l'Espace en fasse autant.

[@normansilver905]

I see both German and Spanish A400M 's as they land a depart daily at a USAF base here in the US. They appear to be a very stable and powerful airplane. I am an aviator and would not hesitate to get a ride on one if offered. AirBus has built some very successful aircraft.

The A400M is capable of landing on austere landing sites. They regularly land at Pembrey sands beach here in South Wales. Some very good KZbin videos if you want to search.

[@a.felipea.8567]

No olvides España. Ese avión se ensambla en España

[@Clonefiles]

Very good videos 🤗🤗

[@victorianobs9994]

Informacion inexacta ,España tambien esta en el consorcio de este avion.

The A400M is probably the best suited for the RNZAF even thou im a big fan of the C17, i just wish the New Zealand government would get their act together and make it so. Once a long time ago we had the best flyers in the world now look were we are. so sad.

[@warrenholmes3311]

Just to let you know... in the US Military, INERT rounds are denoted by a blue-painted body casing. Yellow or orange is ONLY limited to testing/experimental usage.

[@chrislong3938]

The C-17 can even carry passengers on the outside for short distances...

[@xavierthomas8311]

Belle vidéo bien filmée. Merci pour ce beau moment. Amicalement.

[@jufrinaldiartbkt4042]

Amazing video

[@chrissmith2114]

The purpose of turbo-prop rather than high-bypass jet engine is that even when plane is standing still the props are pushing air over the wings and making lift, so in some ways the speed of air over the wings is indipendent of aircraft speed... allowing for slower landings as well as short take off. Turbo props are also very efficient on fuel.

[@wildcoyote34]

it's amazing how big the turoo-props have gotten ,,i have yet to see the A400M in person but i see the C5 galaxy and C-17 globemaster regularly where i live near Offutt AFB outside of bellevue Ne ,,i've even seen the new KC46 Pegasus fly over my house a couple times ,,,Offutt just reopened their runway after 3 years of reconstruction so they are very active training

She’s a beast! ❤

E o KC 390 MILENIUM DA EMBRAER? FAÇA UMA PARTICIPAÇÃO DESTA AERONAVE.

[@pesawatindonesia]

incredible!!!! ❤❤❤❤

[@jerryg957]

Reminds me of a C141 only with props .

[@rayjames6096]

The cockpit windows on the C-17 are the same as the ones on the DC-10.

[@danielschulze9106]

That makes me Proud ...why not learning from each other as Friends in Times like this ;)

[@rEdf196]

There should be a new passenger plane that uses a pair of A400M type engines

[@1968konrad]

For regulary high frequency aircraft operation its better to have them all at similar speed above 520mph.

[@franciscofortunato1864]

Me gustaría preguntarle al señor de los grafismos del vídeo, donde está Sevilla.

"Airbus A400M 정신없이 짧은 이륙" ....... 도대체 짧은 이륙은 언제 하느냐고 ???

[@davidperez9442]

Los aviones de ala alta siempre me han gustado por ese diseño ,se ven intimidantes e imponentes ,sin duda son grandes bestias de carga !!!! ✈✈✈✈👋✈👋✈👏👏👏✈

[@xot80]

whaaaat?

[@alannewman85]

I want to marry the flight engineer at 10:01!!!!

[@jack40russel]

I saw these babies being put together

[@Lee_303]

These things can dive & recover insanely quick, one did a massive dive outside my work close to Jn 15a M1, very low, the area isn't particularly hilly / no valley there at all. Kinda expected to see a massive fireball, but no

[@millansvensson8641]

[@davef.2329]

Pegasus tanker?

[@Cinncinnatus]

The turboprops turn diff directions because how close they are, and if they didnt they would fight against each other. DERP. They HAVE to do this... not because its better... want an example why? look at 1:31 and the parked airbus in the background and the props.

[@noobboiiiiiiiiiiiiiii2342]

We used the shithook in 70 or 71 to fly to China Beach.

[@grahamthebaronhesketh.]

They should have simply updated the C-130.

[@DommoPA]

plz do not go 90 degrees.!

[@jean-philippemartin9489]

US publicity ?

[@BimBims]

Mendingan beli ini ketimbang hercules itu

[@Heneling]

Yes, however the A400m has encountered many issues with its engines

[@CaptainK007]

Noisy. Don’t need radar to track it. Mk1 earole.

[@filmemacher9876]

Airplane without noises doesn’t works

[@howardbarnard4049]

You’re right. They are very noisy & it’s very distinctive. I live under a flight path that they use regularly at about FL120 & I don’t need to look up to see the type of aircraft.

[@CaptainK007]

@@howardbarnard4049 same here. 220. Guess who. No need to guess. Awful racket. Supersonic blade tips.

[@mxr572]

I still think jets are a stronger propulsion than blades. most other new transports are jet.

[@chrissmith2114]

The turbo prop blades are pushing airflow over the wings and providing lift even before aircraft starts to roll for takeoff so they allow a much shorter take off - turboprop also easier to maintain and less likely to be damaged by FOD...

[@berndhoppe585]

Crash maschine => 4 death people in Sevilla, Thank you, nothing for me and I don' t want that my taxes are spent for such an airplane.

[@user-eg2cz5vr7s]

I hate the big American plane with two propellers it looks silly and unsafe I'm thinking what would happen to it if one of its engines failed

[@Heneling]

Which plane is that?

[@michaeln.3789]

Mittlerweile gehörst du zu den LkW-doc's mit diesen vielen Reparaturen. OK, eure Reise leidet ein wenig darunter. Aber das als Vorbereitung auf die große Reise zu zählen, ist schon eine Nummer. Jetzt sollte euch doch nichts mehr Erschüttern. Auf in den Genuss eurer Unternehmungen.

[@user-lu9hy5of8s]

tldw

[@LOLOVAL-os3pq]

a reminder, propeller-driven transport planes can land on any terrain, even unprepared, a plane with jet engines cannot, their huge jet engines could suck in debris and damage the fan blades!
