Yes, he knew that. Airbus is already making a business version of the a220 with aux tanks that can reach that distance. There are talks of them making a version with aux tanks in the A220. There’s also talks of airbus making a longer version to get more capacity. Just like how the 737 has evolved and has different variants the same can happen with the A220. I think aux tanks are more likely to happen since airbus is already working on it. I believe breeze wants some of the last orders they have to be extended range.
