Bombardier CSeries Aircraft Presentation
 

Saw this on there website.

Rumored to be a possibility for DC-9 replacement.

That PPT looks like it was made by an 8th grader. There didn't seem to be any substance in the entire presentation save the picture of the interior. This A/C has been in the concept phase for quite sometime, I wonder if it will actually ever come to fruition

Not to point the thread in a negative direction, but let's hope that this birds don't end up at any regional.

It's already bad enough folks flying 900's for 50 seat pay.

"Now is the future"

WAR IS PEACE; FREEDOM IS SLAVERY; IGNORANCE IS STRENGTH.

I've seen these before. They're called A319s.

I guess with the all the "M&A" talk, Bombardier has brushed the dust off the C-Series program and would like to market it to mainline customers.

looks like a 190 to me.

It's fugly. Can't you find an Airplane these days made with good 'ole steam gauges? :mad: You can't even get a damn 172 with dials anymore.

So now they think the 170 is the best?

Anything with more than 50 seats needs to be mainline IMO. Looks like a -190 or -170 though.

God, I hope not. Bombardier better not slap the word "regional" on this beast or the mainline guys might turn their nose up at it as well:rolleyes:

About a year ago or so, you could buy a new shiny 172 with the round dials as an option, but it was more expensive. Now I don't even see that option on the Cessna website anymore, but they still refer to the G1000 as an "option". :rolleyes:

i dont think this is a very wise buiness move for bombardier..... to devlop this aircraft and market it sucessfully is going to be quite a challenge seeing that there are already several aircraft that fit in this category, 319, smaller 737, possibly some strech versions of the ERJ 170/190 if developed.....as far as branding this thing as a regional aircraft, good luck, im shure that would spur all sorts of bickering between mainline and regionals

The 195 has already been certified.
