Now why hasn't JNB had 1 A400M yet? CPT has had 3 :( :( :(

Pity it was cloudy, nice catch though.

The A400M will depart tomorrow (Friday 27 October). It is here to load the last of the remaining equipment from the Taurus tests in April (!).

Err... which one have I missed? I remember getting the RAF A400 that brought the RHIB for HMS Clyde and we had the German one yesterday, but who was the 3rd one? Have we missed an A400?

Thank you for the information. Unfortunately the planes have been landing 01 for most of today so we missed it.

The planes are taking off over the house, but with all the cloud cover out this way, we can only hear them, we can't see them. Our hope now is a daylight 19 arrival and hopefully this isn't a once off trip.
