True story! The whole production was on the brink of ending abruptly. Bombardier was all over the media saying it was about to go bankrupt since Rah backed out and didn't have the scratch the rev promised they would. Go back and watch the videos of the C-Series unveiling in Indy. Then read the articles that followed. These guys at Delta are fn Jedis with money. It was very interesting how it all unfolded. Delta, like Emirates w 380 came in after they manufactures said, "we are shutting the line down if we cannot get orders." Lifeline Tossed! This reminded me..I haven't heard much about the MRJ or that Russian thing that flew into a mountain in a while. Gonna go check it out.. Also, congrats to you guys, and your new CBA. News of expansion and growth at every level above the regionals is wonderful. Finally got out after a decade myself. And thank you again for the ride out of Bee Wii few months ago. Was one of the most pleasant jumpseat rides I've ever had.
