For Bombardier this friendship is pregnant with potential - China is a huge market. Bombardier has been doing business in China a long time and understands the unique challenges that brings to the table. Having COMAC as an ally is only good news for the Canadians.

The airline has about a third of its fleet out of action.  One would think that these challengers are making the future of the airline ever more tenuous. Apparently not according to analysts at Bangalore Aviation.  We did a podcast with them last night.

Reuters is reporting that Kingfisher's CEO has kept on with his demand that Indian airlines be allowed to import their own jet fuel.  Since some Indian states charge as much as 28% sales tax on fuel, being allowed to bring in their own fuel could bring huge savings.  Indian airlines will be allowed to import jet fuel directly under a proposal from a ministerial panel Aviation Minister Ajit Singh is reported to have said.  </itunes:summary><media:content url="http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/IagblogPodcasts/~5/EyHIWA5lAvM/2012-02-07T07_33_48-08_00.mp3" fileSize="19031387" type="audio/mpeg" /><itunes:subtitle>Nanocasting for the aviation and travel industry</itunes:subtitle><description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;a href="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~a/5qUkDPcW2JSlN1nNiivAZNao9IU/0/da"&gt;&lt;img src="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~a/5qUkDPcW2JSlN1nNiivAZNao9IU/0/di" border="0" ismap="true"&gt;&lt;/img&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br/&gt;
