Bombardier’s Cromer: CSeries program ‘continues to gain momentum’
Bombardier Commercial Aircraft president Fred Cromer expects more interest in the CSeries program at the Farnborough Airshow, especially following the June 29 delivery to SWISS. “The program continues to gain momentum,” Cromer said. “We had the real introduction [of the aircraft] at the Paris Air Show last year and certification since then. Entry-into-service and the CS300 certification are coming up soon.” He said this momentum includes recent orders from Delta Air Lines and Air Canada. “The momentum is very tangible in the kinds of conversation we are getting from the industry,” he said. Cromer sees rising interest, especially “from sophisticated airlines—and many of them watch airlines like Lufthansa, Air Canada or Korean [Air].” <br/>
