deSitter,
I'm afraid I do not share your idea of the freight market. Times are going to get very tough it that arena I feel. Here is a report on it, a few months old granted but with plenty of widebody passenger jets still being delivered there must be a huge amount of spare belly capacity which is subsidized by the passengers themselves.
Anyhow good luck to Bombardier on this one, looks great. I only hope it lives up to expectation.
