The ejet was the only thing that got VB through the GFC.

The ATR was a bad decision made for dubious reasons particularly as VB owned most of the ejet except for the last few.

interestingly Singapore/scoot have just ordered e2’s.

I personally think the 330 and atr were, at its core, a matter of the Italian hairdryer feeling like it wasn’t his idea so they were no good.

domt get me wrong the 330 is a good jet but not at the price they paid for them and same for the ATR. They paid more for the ATR’s than they did for the ejets.

just dumb
