英国空军首架 A400M 运输机在命名仪式上飞越布里斯托尔，新一代 A400M 军用运输机的机翼以及一些零部件由设在布里斯托尔市的工厂制造，为突出该城在飞机交付进程中发挥的作用，因此将首架量产的 A400M 命名为“布里斯托尔城”号。这也是英国空军不寻常的单独给一架飞机命名。（The RAF Atlas A400M aircraft 'City of Bristol' enroute to the city it's named after. The UK’s first A400M Atlas has been named “City of Bristol” by the Royal Air Force in a rare honour to highlight the important role industry in the city has played in the delivery of the aircraft. The wings of the next-generation military transporter plane were designed and manufactured at the Airbus factory in Filton, Bristol, with a number of other businesses in the city, including Rolls-Royce, GKN Aerospace, and Atkins, demonstrating a range of high quality aerospace skills which support the A400M programme.）
