I'm sure there won't be a C series AE for a while now. But that doesn't mean there can't be an AE.

I wonder if we have an out clause for C deliveries? There is zero chance we'll take them for anything other than same day flipping to someone else with this much uncertainty in the air and a potential quadrupling of the price. It looks like this won't be settled see some time anyway, and if our plan is to get US made ones that's years out anyway.

If we have lift needs I'm sure we can mine plenty of ASM's by delaying the dog retirements and/or finding used planes. And I'm sure AB will help us quite aggressively either directly or indirectly.

The first batch of Cseries aircraft are replacements for regional flying. We are taking delivery of 5 737/A321's a month to replace mad dogs. They can keep more regional jets flying near term.

If Boeing can't prove financial harm in February then the proposed tariffs go away... Looks like a manufacturing line will be added to Mobile regardless due to potential increases in interest now that Airbus is involved... In my mind, the delivery time will be extended if the February decision goes Boeing's way. If not, expect the CS100s closer to schedule (if P&W doesn't screw up engine deliveries!).
