Bombardier, Longview finalize Q series program deal
The de Havilland name has returned to aircraft manufacturing with completion
of the $300 million sale of the Dash 8 program by Bombardier to Canada’s
Longview Aircraft Capital. Production of the Q400 regional turboprop and
support for the Dash 8-100/200/300 has been transferred to De Havilland Aircraf
t of Canada, a new subsidiary of Longview.

Bombardier previously sold the Downsview, Toronto, site where the Q400 is produ
ced for $635 million, but the new company will continue to produce the Q400, re
named the Dash 8-400, at the site under land lease agreements that extend to 20
23. Longview is conducting a search for a long-term home for the Dash 8 program
.

Todd Young, who led the Q Series program for Bombardier, will lead the new comp
any. More than 1,200 Bombardier employees, almost all the Downsview workforce
on the program, have transferred to De Havilland, “ensuring operational contin
uity and a seamless transition for customers,” Longview said.

Longview Aviation Capital said it plans to focus on the cost-competitiveness of
 the aircraft, from production to parts and in-service support. “In the months
 ahead, we will be investing in the business with the aim of positioning us to
better serve our customers,” chairman David Curtis said.

Bombardier said it will “provide transitional services and will license certai
n intellectual property to Longview to facilitate a seamless transition of the
Q Series aircraft program.” The company expects new proceeds of $250 million
from the sale. It is also looking at options for the CRJ regional jet program.

The parent company of Viking Air, Longview has a long association with Bombardi
er and the de Havilland Canada name. In 2005 and 2006, Viking acquired the type
 certificates for all out-of-production de Havilland Canada types, from the DHC
-1 Chipmunk to the DHC-7 Dash 7. In 2007, the company restarted production of
the DHC-6 Twin Otter with the upgraded Series 400.

Longview followed in 2016 with the purchase of the CL-415 amphibious waterbombe
r program from Bombardier, including support for the piston-powered CL-215 and
 turboprop re-engined CL-215T. A new subsidiary, Longview Aviation Services is
 now upgrading CL-215s to an improved CL-415EAF standard.

重點翻譯：
1.Bombardier將Q400計畫及Q100~300後勤支援賣給Viking Air母公司Longview Aircraft C
apital.
2.同時Longview成立de Havilland Canada 公司負責此計畫，所以之後生產的Q400將冠上
Dash-8-400名稱
3.目前Bombardier在多倫多的Q400生產基地將租給新的DHC到2023，同時原本的Q400計畫頭
頭及1200員工將移轉至新DHC公司
4.同時BBD正在為CRJ計畫找出路
---------------------------------------
Bombadier要退出民用機市場了嗎？
CS賣了、Q400也賣了，剩CRJ也在評估....
或許可以期待Dash-100~300復活來和ATR競爭一下？
