Además del mayor esfuerzo de inspección en las tuercas de montaje de las hélices, actualmente se requieren una variedad de inspecciones adicionales, incluida la verificación de los soportes del motor, las grietas en varios lugares, en las cámaras de combustión y las aletas del motor.

The French defence procurement agency, DGA, has selected Safran to supply an air delivery system capable of releasing heavy loads from the A400M military transport aircraft.

The company has received a contract for 200 side door release systems and 160 gravity release systems. The systems can drop loads of between 320kg and four metric tons, depending on configuration.
