I wonder if there was more to this BRP announcement than putting the blame on Covid19? There was a WTO court finding that spurred changes for Boeing and Airbus. Bombardier had some kind of partnership with Boeing for their 130 passenger commuter jet. The relationship was dissolved and Airbus acquired the program and rebranded it to the "new" A220? Hmmmmmmmmm?Quote:
