Delta to keep the MD-88s flying until 2020 due to replacement Bombardier CS100 delays

Submitted
 
Boeing has previously accused Bombardier of dumping the aircraft on to the US market after Bombardier reported a $500 million (CA) loss due mainly to three orders it negotiated probably at a loss. Delta is now being forced to spend more money on the aging MD-88s for maintenance until the type is fully replaced. (worldairlinenews.com) More...

If the complaint against the C-100 gets thrown out along the bureaucratic/political steeplechase, Delta will have a cause to be made whole against Boeing. It does look like Boeing has gotten its last single aisle order from Delta.
