The Airbus A400M military transport plane has carried out its maiden flight today in Seville (Spain), with almost two years of delay to the schedule. The four-engined plane took off at 10:15am from the San Pablo aerodrome, where the Spanish plant Airbus EADS Company is based, in front of an audience of 2500 people invited from all over the world, reports the company. These included King Juan Carlos and authorities from the seven partner countries of the project: Germany, Spain, France, UK, Turkey, Belgium and Luxembourg, who will analyse the consequences of the delays to the development of the A400M. The airplane will allow helicopters and combat aircraft to refuel in flight and to quickly transport large cargos over long distances. It has a cargo capacity of 37 tonnes, is 45.1 metres long and 14.7 metres high. Its range can reach 6389km with a cargo weighing 20 tonnes. 184 A400M airbuses have been ordered so far (11.12.2009) from Belgium, France, Germany, Luxembourg, Malaysia, Spain, Turkey and the UK.

Hey guys, Joslyn Davis here at the ClevverTV headquarters with news from Bieber central. Justin just shot his second episode of CSI, and now his co-star George Eads is dishing to E! Online on what it was like working with the global star. Justin's co-star calls his a "cool kid," and about his role, Eads says "he's in the eye of a hurricane and...he handles himself really well." He also adds that the duo had "a lot of intense scenes together." So is JB set to die on the popular crime drama? Well, Eads semi-teased that might be the case, even saying that "in the context of the story, [the Biebs character] deserved it." Then he went on to jokingly recalled that Swifty died on the show too, so everyone better "tell Miley Cyrus to come on [the] show." Are you guys okay with the possibility that Justin Bieber's character might kick the bucket on CSI?

As part of the AirPower 09 Air Show the Austrian Air Force demonstrated a C-130 Hercules fly-by followed by a rapid takeoff of two Eurofighter Typhoon Jets which then had to intercept the C130 and force it to land. The vid is a bit shaky, I apologize for that :(

Sevilla, 11 dic (EFE) El proyecto del avión de transporte militar A400M de la división Airbus Military perteneciente al consorcio europeo EADS, culminó hoy a las 10.15 horas con el despegue del vuelo inaugural desde la factoría sevillana de San Pablo, donde se montará y entregará el aparato. El avión, tras calentar durante varios minutos sus cuatro motores TP400-D6 turboprop, se desplazó suavemente por la pista desarrollando toda su fuerza, para remontar el vuelo al cielo de Sevilla, entre el aplauso de los más de tres mil asistentes al acto. El prototipo de A400M tiene previsto realizar un vuelo de tres horas, con un rango de acción de entre 200 y 300 kilómetros, bajo los mandos de dos pilotos, uno español, Ignacio Lombo, y otro británico, Edward Strongman, con una tripulación formada por cuatro ingenieros franceses.
