UK Defends Bombardier With Outright Rejection of Boeing Case
Boeing's trade case against Bombardier over the CSeries has been categorically rejected as having no merit by the UK government, which has urged the US airframer to withdraw the complaint immediately. (www.flightglobal.com) Más...Sort type: [Top] [Newest]
if the tables were turned and Canada imposed a massive tariff on boeing products, they would be whining all the way to Washington
Sir, If you had been paying attention to the nature of this discussion, that's exactly what the Americans have done because it goes against their interest of maintaining Boeing's absolutely monopoly of this industry. The individuals are Boeing's hired "Men in black. It's typical Robber Baron behaviour . Boeing will serve its own interests first. Also remember that America is not a nation...instead it is a vast array of independent hive mental collective activity?
Boeing gets no tax or goverment help!?
Don't we get just a tad tired of Boeing's perpetual whining about unfair competition and tax advantages given to their competitors...seems all the massive military orders they enjoy don't count.
This is not going to end well for Boeing and the US if they try and justify that 300% tariff. U.S. airlines can only buy so many Boeing planes and if they end up pissing off the rest of the world's aircraft buyers by going after little Bombardier, over a plane with which Boeing doesn't have a match, they stand to lose out to AirBus and to Comac and Irkut for foreign orders.
I remember something about competition, but where is the competition? Is Boeing trying to seize Bombardier for a hostile takeover?
The Cseries does compete with the MAX 7 and does it very well. That’s the reason for the hostility from Boeing.
If that were true, why did Boeing not offer the MAX 7 to Delta rather than 20 used E190's and future used 717's? Obviously Boeing knows it does not compete.
I forgot about the soon to be phased out 717's. I thought comparing a 737-700 series is still apples to oranges with a CSeries Bombardier. I can see the CSeries replace a 717.
I very much hope you right
