    Yeah. I'm sure Bombardier will stay on top of things. They need to make a good impression not only because this is the entry into service for the C Series. LH will also be keeping an eye on it to see if it will enter their own fleet in the future.
    Pretty much every new aircraft type will have teething problems during EIS.

    What matters is not how many issues they have, but the nature of the issues and how quickly they will be resolved.

    If a resolution requires a major change or going back to proverbial 'drawing board', then it is not good.

    Fortunately, most of the recent issues both Boeing and Airbus have had during EIS (Such as those with 787 and 350) have been caused by equipment provided by sub contractors and are easily resolvable.

    Let's hope the issues with C Series are also similar in nature.

                        • Omg what a sad day for Emirates! I think its the first aircraft accident for EK ever since there in operation in 1985 ?
                          What's the registration of the aircraft please?

                              South Asians in action. Wouldn't be surprised if a similar thing happened to a flight from CMB
