Bombardier: FIRM BACKLOG...FIRM BACKLOG
Analyst Cameron Doerksen said yesterday's announcement suggests the other airlines -- Lufthansa, Austrian and SAS -- will also select their purchases from Embraer and Bombardier. Airbus and Boeing were also in the running with aircraft seating over 100.
Doerksen, with Montreal's Dlouhy Merchant, said the new order gives Bombardier a firm backlog of 337 regional jets.
