I believe I read a couple of weeks ago, (I haven't found the numbers yet) with the huge numbers of neos Airbus have sold, it only works out to around a 20% reduction for them.
So I have to agree with your numbers, I'd also have to say they are dis-proportionate. I still don't think it's "f**k Bombardier", I think it's what was negotiated and therefore acceptable to both parties.
There was also a comment or remark about the issues for the neo's GTF not being the same as Bombardier's in that same article.

With regard to your earlier comment about sales before the end of the year, this company is on life support (it seems), a sale before Jan. 1 would certainly help, but if they don't sell more C series by the spring, they're probably going to be on their last leg. We'll see.
