Fuel Trim

Unlike some Airbus types, the A400M does not feature "fuel tank trimming". There is no trim tank in the tail. Neither is fuel pumped laterally (except, if required, under manual pilot control to correct a fuel imbalance). The fuel's path from tank to engine is untroubled by any software. The Wikipedia and Aviation Week articles are a load of bull.
