US President Donald Trump Announces Decertification of Canadian-Made Aircraft

US President Donald Trump has threatened to strip US certification from Bombardier business jets and all aircraft made in Canada unless Gulfstream’s G500, G600, G700, and G800 become fully certified. The move comes amid a dispute over certification of Canadian-made aircraft for the Canadian market. Bombardier has taken note of Trump’s statement and is in contact with the Canadian government, warning that the issue could have significant impacts on air traffic and passengers if it spirals.
