This is the maiden flight of the Airbus new military transport plane called A400M...
I am the project manager for a company who was a major player in getting this Aircraft to fly (we designed, certified and now manufacture the primary DC power distribution assembly of the aircraft), so I am very proud and had a tear in my eyes when I saw it take off for the first time on Friday...
This was a grueling program which spam over 5 years (for my company), but we are very happy to see it finally fly! FWIW, we were not part of the delays and cost issues (mainly due to engine problems and a series of other things).
Couldn't be better news for Xmas!!!
When was the last time your job made you proud?
