My buddy Addison Schonland, IAGBlog podcaster, has a great interview with Airbus A400M chief test pilot Ed Strongman. I was interested to learn that a single 11,000shp TP400 can make the C-130 climb at a rate of 1,000ft/min. But we'll most likely remember the interview for Strongman's bold statement the C-130 is for the last century, and the still-unproven and financially unstable A400M is for this century.
