Airbus A400-M Airlifter

I had to take the A400 for a spin, after watching that viddie as well. I was surprised to find that the Wilco A400-M is capable of just about all of the maneuvers that the real plane did in the video. Just don't load up any humvees before you attempt those wing overs! A truly remarkable airplane.

C-17 With Turboprops?

I'll have to agree with one of the comments made on that you tube video.

"Hey look its a C-17 with turbo props....Great job Airbus great original design."

At any rate, It's a nice plane
 
it's a great aircraft... a lot quieter on the inside than the Herky-Birds that's for sure, i for one am looking forwards to it going into service, last year it's 'crew nickname' was Grizzly, this year she was officially named at RIAT.... 'Atlas', after the Greek myth. Seen her display at RIAT a few times now, never fails to impress me.... pair of photos i took this year at RIAT while she was taking off for part of the RAF Heavy Flypast (2nd image, flew with C-130, VC-10, Tristar, C-17, A330MRTT and A400M, first image is when it was part of the flypast)
