Globe says Bombardier hears FAA chief ... clear as mud

2026-02-03 07:48 ET - In the News

The Globe and Mail reports in its Tuesday edition that the head of the U.S. Federal Aviation Administration provided little clarity Monday about whether the agency would strip the safety permits for Canadian-made planes as President Donald Trump's threats against Bombardier and other domestic manufacturers continue to loom large over the industry. The Globe's Nicolas Van Praet writes that FAA administrator Bryan Bedford declined to say whether the agency would pull the certifications for planes made in Canada, which include Bombardier Global and Challenger business jets as well as the Airbus A220 airliner and De Havilland turboprops and water-bombers. But he did raise questions about whether regulators in other countries were doing as much as the FAA on the approvals process, suggesting that lack of effort is hurting American plane makers. "Our concern is whether or not sufficient resources are being applied to U.S. products equal to the resources that we're applying to certify foreign products," Mr. Bedford said on the sidelines of the Changi Aviation Summit in Singapore. "So, we just want a level playing field." Industry Minister Mélanie Joly sadi the safety approvals process is "something we don't politicize."
