Number of posts on engine problems-was the Tyne just too far ahead of its time or was their a particular issue? Was used rather well on the Dassault Atlantique, I believe. Second, compared to the Belfast, is the A400M bigger or smaller? Last, did the Belfast have boosted controls or tabs? And what was it like to manhandle.

I know it will bring tactical capability. We had all kinds of airdrop facilities in C-5 but never used except for ICBMs and training. Yes, ICBMs!
