J.T.1, 
You make a fair point here. Quite right, economic realists did indeed tell Bombardier that this is what would happen and it did. Bombardier bit off more than it could chew and it has harmed the rest of their business areas as well. That being said, the deal with Airbus may actually pay off for Bombardier and if sales are strong enough, they could turn a profit on the C Series. As for the rail division, they definitely need to get in on the merger between Siemens and Alstom.  If they don't, China will eat them up for sure.
