Deliveries of commercial aircraft were lower in 2012, with 50 delivered in 2012 compared to 78 the previous year. However, the company received 138 orders compared to 54 for 2011.
The company’s president and chief operating officer, Guy Hachey, said the results were pleasing given the challenging economic climate.
“A number of our existing customers reaffirmed their confidence in Bombardier aircraft in 2012 with fleet growth and fleet replenishment orders, and we proudly welcomed new customers from emerging and traditional markets. Overall, we are seeing positive momentum across our entire product portfolio,” Hachey said.
