Default Delta locks out Embraer with CS order

Quote:
Bombardier scored a major order for its new CSeries passenger jets from Delta Air Lines Inc on Thursday, boosting the Canadian manufacturer's stature in the airline industry even as it faces a long road back to profitability.

The order for 75 CS100 jets, worth an estimated $5.6 billion based on the list price, was the biggest yet and the first from a major U.S. airline for the CSeries program, which is years behind schedule and billions of dollars over budget.

Quebec-based Bombardier hopes the deal marks a turning point in its attempt to break into the fleets of top airlines and serve the niche market for 100-seat planes spurned by larger rivals Boeing and Airbus.

At a rumoured discount of 2/3rds of list no real surprise.

Goodish news for Bombardier... obviously more good the less true the rumoured discount is. Let's hope it's also good news for DL... I hope it will be, I want it to be
