This magnificient aircraft has
been training trainers here at CVG and it has been fun to watch low level work in
the pattern. My Delta son, Mike, will train on this bird early next year.

like Delta isn't going to get them -
Bombardier CS100
Thanks, Dick. I have lost about 90% of my address book. I am
still trying to talk to someone at AOL to get it back. Right now I am limited
to replying only to the originator of an email.
You might want to fwd this to the PNC for now. I don't know
when or if I will regain my contact lists.

After punishing Bombardier with a 219 percent tariff on the CSeries
airliner last week, the U.S. Commerce Department slapped another 80 percent
levy on the jet this week. Responding to a complaint from Boeing, the
Commerce department found that Bombardier’s prices on the CSeries in a sale
to Delta Air Lines amounted to dumping or selling goods below cost.
According to the Seattle Times, the Commerce department said
Bombardier failed to provide the information it requested in the case and it
accepted Boeing’s argument that the CSeries sale represents unfair competition
because of government subsidies. The tariff effectively quadruples the price
of the CSeries jets for U.S. buyers. The Commerce ruling still has to be
reviewed by the U.S. International Trade Commission, but if it’s approved,
Delta’s purchase is unlikely to go through.
Bombardier can appeal the decision to the U.S. Court of
International Trade or the World Trade Organization but that action is
expected to take months. Although Boeing has no competitor for the CS100
Bombardier intended to sell to Delta, it noted that the sales contract
allowed the airline to convert some of the 75-airplane order to the larger
CS300. That could represent lost sales for Boeing.
If the tariff decision stands, U.S. companies won’t escape the
impact. Half of the CSeries components are U.S. sourced, including the Pratt
& Whitney geared turbofans that account for the airplane’s exceptional
efficiency. The wings are manufactured in Ireland. Following Friday’s
decision, Bombardier said the ruling “represents an egregious overreach and
misapplication of U.S. trade laws in an apparent attempt to block CSeries
aircraft from entering the U.S. market.”

More on the CS 100 order:
My guess, Delta will work something out.
