Completely agree! This is a complete cockup!!!! Don't let the 800 lb gorilla win!

Just wait till there becomes a new Delta Air Lines subsidiary called Delta Aircraft Leasing based in a country where they wouldn't be affected by the tariff. DAL then leases the CSeries to the other DAL. Problem solved?

Think of it as a 737-200 replacement. I think those good old boys would be blown away by this 'little jet'. No wonder Boeing is pooping in their pants. All they have to offer is a 1967 model with new carpet.

No, because Boeing will likely be going after the supply chain as well, without a win in the CoA, this will be a dead aircraft. It's clear Boeing wants Bombardier out of the narrowbody picture.

Looks like the 88's will be around a bit longer.

And we will be an Airbus airline for a very, very long time.

As I have said before, I hope you guys boycott Boeing going forward. It's not just this, Boeing was also behind deregulation. They have done the most to hurt the pilot profession over the years.

Very true.

Boeing is all about the ME3, and they are the only reason flag of convience carriers are still being allowed.

Plus, they use a bunch of our tax money to scam the ex-Im bank out of cash.

Truly, Boeing of today represents the very worst of corporate welfare and abuse of power.

This "US" company has been working real hard to weaken and degrade US airlines and employees for decades...... What do they care? Someone has to buy planes-even if the US can't afford new ones anymore
