Check out Delta's new Canadian airliner that's trying to challenge Boeing and Airbus
In April, Bombardier Aerospace announced a mega order with Delta Air Lines for 75 of the company's C Series airliners in a deal worth up to $5.6 billion. Shortly after the deal's announcement, Bombardier flew one of its C Series demonstrators down to Delta's Atlanta headquarters for journalists and the airline's staff to get a closer look.

Asking from a layperson's point of view, do you find the stick control superior, equal to, or not as desirable as the conventional type found in a conventional cockpit?
But how will it handle all of the light chop?
Wow, Delta actually buying new unproven A/C? The seats like skimpy, much like the old CRJ200.
Hopefully these will run at mach .79 or .78 . If they don't its going to cost delta a ton of cash with delays going into ATL
Specs say .78 typical, maximum cruise .82, and so far airlines that use the CSeries report that all design targets are met, very often even surpassed.
waaaaaaaay off topic comment. but i did so here just because of the "newness" of the C series.
it's a question really.
what do aircraft designers do to determine if their jet engines are wing mount or tail mount?
it seems like the tail mount provides a clean wing, lower fuselage profile, but engine maintenance is elevated.
wing mount is easy engine maintenance, gravity drain fuel flow to engines.
my apology for OT.
