Their hands are tied with feed, and we can easily offer them a fair rate and mainline reliability. I suspect that Bombardier is willing to deal to get the program off the ground. A fleet of CS100's makes a world of sense IMHO.

Agree 100%. BBD needs a legacy order to add some legitimacy to the program. I'll bet they cut us a deal if they haven't already.
