Arriving back from Manching on 22.12. after it´s check was A400M 54+12 and this ends the dramatic shortage of aircrafts for LTG 62 due to Airbus´ too slow maintenance procedures (at Madrid, Sevilla and Manching) in the last months. All in all in December the following 18 aircrafts were active:

54+06, 54+07, 54+08, 54+11, 54+12, 54+14, 54+17, 54+18, 54+22 (at Al Azraq) 54+23, 54+28, 54+29, 54+31, 54+32, 54+33, 54+36, 54+37 and 54+38. Most effective A400M still is 54+29 beeing airborne in 25 out of the last 33 months.

4 x A400's parked at Leipzig midnight 21st on the Apron 1 and C-17 07-7182 from Charleston over on Apron 2. Any ID for the A400's ???

Due to colour state RED at Wunstorf (heavy fog at 200 feet with 100 feet vertical view), 54+07 and 54+37 circled around their base for some time and made several missed approaches, it was decided to land at Leipzig. 54+18 and 54+29 also landed there, coming back from a mission.
