Our teams have worked tirelessly to merge cultures and bring operations together well ahead of schedule and are confident in our ability to make this win-win partnership a thriving commercial success. The composition of the C Series leadership team reflects our principles of bringing together the best talent that both sides have to offer.”
He added: “We are ready to turn outward and help our customers get their hands on the hottest aircraft in its segment.”
