Latest cancellation for RIAT was already expected for some time: Airbus A400 will stay at home (according to @RIAT 2011).
No doubt due to the gearbox problems it is suffering from.
Lets hope the number of cancellations will not go on for much longer. However it seems that the Vulcan is also having some issues.
It went tech with an engine problem earlier this week.
Groeten, Regards,
René
