Apologies to your organs. Hope you can one day go to the bathroom in pieces. I mean peace. Pardon the golden shower. That was 80's idea.

Anywho tho, they saved money and block time, and if they had an A14 they probably would have made that as well.

I’m catching wind of a story about Ed telling a group of LCAs last week that he helped push Airbus to buy Bombardier. As the story goes, the original 80% tariff was a pawn in Boeing’s chess match to get Bombardier to sell themselves to Boeing. As the news got worse with the higher tariffs I️ guess it ****ed Ed off enough so he persuaded Airbus to make the move.
Also, I’ve heard we are pressing Bombardier to change the entire C Series order to the 300.

This story is not true. You need to find a new LCA to have brunch with. Just for the record is this the same LCA that says we are having an AE next week (from the other thread)?

I would be shocked if this was true, because it would put Ed and Delta in a very bad spot.

Trust the source or not but the guy was at the meeting and practically quoted Ed. There’s no skin off my back if you don’t.
So, I️ have to ask. What would this LCA gain by lying or even remotely embellishing a story like this? Are you accusing him of lying? I️ had never met the guy before having this conversation with him. I️ didn’t even get into the conversation until he mentioned the AE. I️ pointed out what the latest the company has said about a January AE, but he was confident the info he was given was good. Again, take it or leave it.
I️ passed along what I️ hear like I️ do some times. It was a crew room conversation. It’s irrelevant to me if this turns out to be true as I️ wasn’t involved in the making of the story.
