Delta shoots down Boeing’s CSeries dumping claim
Delta Air Lines shot down Boeing’s claim that Bombardier “dumped” the CSeries order, in testimony last week before the US International Trade Commission. Boeing filed a complaint April 27 that Bombardier sold the CS100 to Delta for $19.6m, well below its production cost, a price that constitutes “dumping.” (leehamnews.com) और अधिक...Sort type: [Top] [Newest]
If it wasn't the for the Canadian Government bailing out Bombardier, the C series would have never been brought to market.
Let's not kid ourselves in believing it is that simple. Do you not believe that extensive pressure applied by the powerful Boeing and other company lobbyists do not result in their favoured status in international and national sales? All gov'ts do what they can to support manufacturer apply pressures that favor them over other companies? Different yet the same. Funny how Boeing is whining that they lost at their own game. And the sale was to a US airline. Ooops Boeing, someone asleep at the switch? Or as Delta exec stated, , , Boeing did not have a competing aircraft. Too bad,,,, so sad. Next!
That market of airplanes is saturated and I think Bombardier made a mistake. Bombardier put all their eggs in the C series basket, pushing the company to near bankruptcy. The Canadian government will not let Bombardier fail, lets be honest. Boeing didn't lose anything, I think Boeing has proven track record selling airplanes. Bombardier is almost in bankruptcy, to point the Canadian government has a 49% stake in the C series and the Global 7000.
Sour grapes by Boeing who are indeed using "Trumponomics" (ref @trennor turcotte) as a fire accelerant to try and block what Delta claims is a good deal from all aspects. Bombardier found a niche and caught Boeing flat footed. Too bad, so sad.
Reading this, Boeing had no delivery slots available and DL has taken delivery. So they are complaining that DL did not obediently wait for them to get around to it?
Finally, every one of the first Bombardier C-Series Regional Jets were baptized by the major airports in Europe. We poor dumb Canucks better be careful, they've got "Dirty Don" terror of the Potomac He will get mad, somebody in the USAF was just told to bomb Ottawa.
