The spinning things look like big CD’s
Fact of the Day: The A400 VTOL (Very Tricky Operational Landing) is the only cargo Airplane that can use its spinny things the same way as a helicopter can, this means it can operate from small airports & takes up less parking space.

How does it balance itself after landing?

It doesn’t. You sweep all the bits up and order another one.

Little known fact: the A400 trim works by using all the small change that falls into the tail to balance it and stop it from tipping forward!

Proper use of the takeoff lights, too, so other airspace users know it's coming. Safety first, always!

You can see it coming? Has it got crystal balls?
