The pace is close enough to what was promised when the contract was signed..... so it’s simply Bombardier getting on with the job. When production at the second plant comes on line, the pace will be even quicker, but that’s only catchup.
I’m sure Bombardier wants to wrap this contract up, but not out of fear of cancellation. Their fixed costs must have gone way over budget. They have paid a workforce for much longer than ever planned or budgeted.
If they deliver at a solid rate for the rest of the order, they take a ball game they were losing 6-0 and at least close it up - maybe never making it a win, but at least not a blowout.
