It seems that when Korean Air isn’t dinging A380’s here and there, it’s commiting to orders placed.
Korean Air has placed a firm order for 10 Bombardier CSeries CS300 aeroplanes, converting a letter of intent signed at the Paris Air Show 2011.
Korean Air’s confirmation of it going ahead with the CSeries gives the programme a welcome boost with an outstanding build of 133 aircraft.
However, compared to the numbers that Airbus were racking up with the A320NEO and even American’s order for 460 Boeing and Airbus aeroplanes, this is very small beer for Bombardier.
