Boeing finally lost the case against Bombardier on January 26th 2018. The 300% tax was abolished and the airplanes will be manufactured near Montreal.

[tthp]

I love it when a company tries to screw their competitor however it totally backfires and makes the problem twice as bad.

[吴发清]

Boeing: you cant defeat me!
Bombardier: I know but he can
*Airbus enters the room*

[FourDollaRacing]

All this, while Boeing was hiding MCAS on its 737 MAX....

[tonywu]

Airbus literally just came into the game out of nowhere and slapped Boeing in the face lol.

[Tyranus]

Bombardier is a really fun word to say

[rebelbeammasterx]

Americans Companies: We don't want the government messing with the free market.
Also American Companies: We do want the government messing with the free market when it suits us.

Bombardier: "MAKE'S C SERIES"
Boeing: imabout to end this whole mans caree-
Airbus: im gonna stop you right there

I have recently flown with SWISS in one of the Bombardiers. They are are some amazing planes, and really comfortable.

[owensimonsen]

The US International Trade Commission voted in Favor of Bombardier Today!!! The vote effectively nullifies the 299.45% tariff proposed by the Department of Commerce in October

[blueferret]

I love how much this guy loves planes.

[honeybadgerflys]

"737 is a fundamentally different plane". *crashes

[noelstr]

UPDATE: Airbus rebranded the CSeries, now calling it the Airbus A220.

[abigailshapirorespecter]

Finally, a happy ending in the Canadian aviation industry...

@6:14 American double standards in play again.
Let's not forget the cozy relationship between the FAA and Boeing that was shamelessly displayed following the two 737-Max crashes.
The whole world grounded the planes while the FAA insisted they were safe to fly for days!

[AhmedIbrahim-mvkc]

The c series was about to end the 737 Max’s whole career but then it did the job itself

[sephyrias]

4:20 it was at this moment that Bombardier knew, they fucked up.
6:35 It was at this moment that Boeing knew, they fucked up.

[ThePreacherJD]

I love how whenever he makes a plane video everyone talks about how much he loves planes, but whenever he does something else everyone talks about "where's the planes?"

[memofromessex]

Boeing: Let's screw over a minor manufacturer and literally design planes that drop out of the air

[sparrow]

@5:23 "but Delta itself has said they didn't want the 737s". Well played Delta, well played.
