A Royal Air Force Airbus A400M Atlas has made a flying visit to Australia.

A400M ZM406 arrived in Cairns from Bander Seri Begawan on December 10 and then flew to Hobart via Sydney on December 12.

On December 13 the A400M then departed Hobart for Darwin.

The visit is believed to be the first to Australia by an RAF A400M, and the second A400M visit to Australia after a French air force A400M flew into the Avalon Airshow earlier this year.
