Paris: That reversed the opening-day position at last year Farnborough Air Show, which alternates with the Paris event, according to The Toronto Star. Bombardier, desperate to land deals for its struggling CSeries program, only announced an order with West Jet Airlines, for six more Q400 turboprops. Boeing amassed orders and commitments valued at almost $18 billion , including narrow-body jets, to top Airbus $15 billion , according to data compiled by Bloomberg. Bombardier spokeswoman Marianella de la Barrera downplayed any suggestion that the company is losing the sales race. De la Barrera added that a lot of interest and potential opportunities that have been in the works are expected to come to fruition over the latter part of the year. From Bombardier perspective it been an extremely successful couple of days so far, she said in an email, noting the CSeries aircraft debuted in Paris, the first all-new single-aisle aircraft in nearly 30 years.
