雖然總覺得這新聞有點像月經文了，
但眼看最近BBD被ATR打得很慘，
還是濟弱扶傾地貼一下新聞好了(誤)。
1.QR執行長Akbar Al Baker希望近期內能跟BBD坐下來討論一下購買CSeries的事情。
2.QR對於CSeries相當有興趣，雖然前一陣子剛訂了一堆A319neo。
3.由於今年五月太忙了，所以Al Baker一直沒空跟BBD討價還價。
4.QR兩年前本來想成為Cseries的發啟客戶，但對PW1500G的維修成本沒有信心。
5.今年5月時，Al Baker表示在6-12個月內將會有所決定，眼看11月即將到來。
6.CSeries仍暫定在今年底完成首航，但BBD怕到時候會delay個幾個月...。
7.BBD表示，成功首航對於潛在客戶的影響非常巨大，甚至比準時交機更關鍵。
8.目前CSeries仍計畫在2013年底正式交機。
Qatar still keen on CSeries order
By: Edward Russell New York
Qatar Airways hopes to conclude an order with Bombardier for the CSeries in
the near future, says chief executive Akbar Al Baker.
"CSeries is an aircraft of great interest to us," he said on the sidelines of
the ceremony announcing Qatar's proposed entry into the Oneworld alliance in
New York on 8 October. "We hope that in the not to distant future we will be
sitting down with Bombardier and concluding a deal."
He said the airline was interested in the CSeries but had to delay
negotiations due to being "very busy", in May.
Qatar is interested in the aircraft for both its own fleet and for that of
its leasing company.
The Gulf carrier was expected to sign to become the CSeries launch operator
two years ago, but Al Baker's concerns about the maintenance costs of the
Pratt & Whitney PW1500G engines delayed a final decision.
Qatar subsequently ordered the Airbus A319neo, but insists that order has not
lessened its interest in the CSeries. Last May, Al Baker said he would make a
decision on the CSeries within six to 12 months, a timeframe that begins in
November.
The CSeries is still scheduled to complete its first flight by the end of the
year, but Bombardier executives say a minor delay of up to a few months is
possible. Bombardier says first flight is a critical milestone for potential
customers, exceeded in significance only by first delivery at the end of 2013.

AirAsia表示: 當初我也是對160席的CS300超有興趣，但最後還是買了好幾打的A320neo。
MRJ表示: 像我早就宣佈要延後推出了，BBD怎麼拿香對拜還這麼扭捏不大方(大誤)。
KE表示: 我買的10架CS300什麼時候可以交機...
