I see the Turkish Air Force are flying the A400, when are we (RAF) likely to go operational.

When 'we' get some...
But more seriously, in answer to your question, the first RAF example is expected around September I believe, so I guess they'll be operational sometime after that! ;)

P.S. The TuAF A400 (supporting the Solo Turk F-16) that was at Waddo, isn't staying for the airshow, it's buggering off then coming back after the airshow has finished, and perhaps surprisingly, RIAT are only getting a C-130 supporting the Solo Turk...
