With Bombardier's willingness to negotiate for a big order, and Republic's inability to use their CS300 orders/options due to restrictive scope, now is probably a great time to do a deal............ SWISS is scheduled to receive CS100s in the next few months and CS300s 6 months later to fly intra-Europe routes.

More C-Series background information:

C Series | Technology - Commercial aircraft - Bombardier
The stock popped too after Richard Anderson's comments on the earnings call. That was planned, someone has to supply the new small narrow-body. If Boeing wants to sell us 737-700s or any other used airframes we might be interested in, now they will have to compete with Bombardier who will price aggressively to get orders for the C-series.
