Airbus is still waiting for Spain to give the green light to resume test flights of the A400M.
The Spanish defense ministry had on Thursday announced that some restrictions would be lifted.
An Airbus spokesman said planes that have recently rolled off the assembly line in the southern Spanish city of Seville would remain grounded and will not undergo the test flights, explaining that the misunderstanding arose from a misinterpretation of the ministry statement.
Flights are understood to resume in the coming days.
Airbus hopes to deliver 13 of 17 A400Ms this year if it obtained the green light to resume the test flights.
