A400 Fly's FINALLY

[beagle]

Just been watching the live stream from the Airbus site of the A400 finally going on it's first test flight.
a bit stop start with the stream, but how things have changed. Here i am sitting behing a piece of glass with LCD's jumping around behind it and I can see thousands of miles away on the other side of the world a plane taking off.

I wonder if Boeing will be going the same with 787 on Tuesday

IT'S ALIIIIIIIIVE (Dr Frankenstein voice). Great to see it up finally. As someone on youtube said, it looks as if Mr C-130J and Mrs C-17A had a child haha. Apparently the 787 is due to fly around the 22nd. the 747-8 due Jan 14th.
