Airbus A400M Flight Test Status (With Corrected Link!)

The link below provides one of the best overall status reports I have seen on any ongoing flight test program.  As usual, Aviation Weeks sets a high bar.  You will find information on propulsion testing, with results as well as problem fixes.  There is information on status of icing and crosswind tests, even ground handling issues like loading and unloading.  This is a great read if you want to know where the airplane stands in its test program.

    FYI: This link leads to an article about the PiperJet. The A400 article sounds interesting, though! :)
