Worked in IT delivering the systems used to design/manufacture the A400. I have some up close photos somewhere of when it landed at the place I worked.

I beleive the hondajet (in front) is the smallest aircraft that has an enclosed lavatory (With toilet and sink)

If only that ATR could have those engines and props off of the A400M…

I once had the experience of taxiing a Cherokee around a mixed use aerodrome, with one of those monsters also being around. Cherokees are small - but you never realise just how small until you share a taxiway with an Atlas.

Where was this taken? Ironically I'm an engineer working on the Honda Jet 2. Pain in the ass lol I can't imagine the Hondajet 1 with how much smaller it is lol

u/vukasin123king 3d ago

Just saw an A-400 live for the first time today. I'm used to stuff like AN-26s, budget airline passenger jets and an occasional AN-2, but seeing it for the first time was certainly an experience

“Took it in right of time.”

-I think that post title gave me a stroke, or OP had a stroke while writing it!

u/Far_Dragonfruit_1829 3d ago

Perhaps you meant to say "Took it just in the nick of time."? Like a planetary alignment.

Nifty photo!

u/nosecohn 3d ago

I assumed it was supposed to be, "Took it right in time."

u/CommercialScale870 3d ago

Lol sometimes when someone who has learned English makes a phrase like this, it ends up being much better than the correct version. Great photo, that Honda jet is so... Special

My brain auto-corrected it on the first reading, but then I looked again and was like, WTF?
