Pictured here lined up on rw27 and awaiting release to depart Fairford after taking part in RIAT 2010. I for one will be sad to see these beautiful transports go if/when they are finally replaced by the A400M. A rule, discovered as I go through life, is that older planes are much more interesting than the ones that replace them! This photo is copyright © Alastair T.
