A400 is superior to the C130 in lift and range and can land where a C17 cannot. As said above RAF has a number of C17 but the c130 is past it now and the RAF is replacing them with the A400
As with most of your posts, you never get your facts right, but who cares, it's the great phil rudd, gods gift to aviation making a staement, even if it is incorrect. BA diverted to MAN not LGW and this was due to SOP not low fuel. The aircraft had more than enough fuel andthis is why the FAA dropped the complaint. Both the B747 & the A380 are certified to fly and continue to fly on 3 engines, depending on other MEL items.
