RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:Global 7500 C-GAUC still doing predelivery flight tonightTrue. But keep in mind that detail design is never done unless a program launch and no tooling, jigs, expensive stuff like that is developped.

«It definifately won't be free but it will cost much less than developing a clean sheet design AND it will be easier to service(maintanace) because there are so many similarities ... I know someone who worked on the Cseries development and "stretching" talks came up often enough, different options were talked about and streamiling a whole fleet was talked about ... from my understanding there was alot of work already done in regards to "stretching" the Cseries right from the begining ...
