Bombardierâs Airbus deal will help us says rival plane maker Embraer
John Slattery
John Slattery  said that the deal  which will see Airbus develop  market and sell Bombardier C-series planes  should generate a higher level of activity in marketing for  his  firm.
Speaking at Dubai Airshow   Slattery  said: "Ninety-nine percent of airline deals are competitive. So if an airline wants to buy any plane they tend to want a competing bid from a manufacturer."
 Embraer's Slattery  said that when the Airbus sales team starts to market the Bombardier C-series  customers who would not have previously considered that type of plane would seek comparable options.
 Slattery  added that the Airbus deal still needed to go through various antitrust hurdles and that Airbus would not be allowed involvement in the C-series for some time.
