4 Dead, 2 Injured Near Seville Assembly Plant The turbulent genesis of the Airbus A400M just got a lot more difficult. An A400M, due to be delivered to the Turkish Air Force within weeks, went down during a shakedown test flight with a crew of six aboard. The aircraft, MSN23, was the first A400M loss. The accident occurred right after departure from Seville's San Pablo airport -- also the home of Airbus Defense and Space's flight test and final assembly facility.
