388 Aircraft in 2013
- Business aircraft: 180 deliveries; 305 net orders

MONTREAL, QUEBEC--(Marketwired - Jan 20, 2014) - Bombardier
Aerospace announced today that it delivered 238 aircraft during
2013, compared to 233 aircraft deliveries in the previous calendar
year ended December 31, 2012. The company also received orders for
388 aircraft, net of cancellations, compared to 481 orders, net of
cancellations, for the previous year.
"The global economy has remained persistently sluggish, and with
its recovery taking longer than originally anticipated, 2013
continued to be a challenging year for aviation," said Guy Hachey,
President and Chief Operating Officer, Bombardier Aerospace.
"Despite this difficult environment, we put in a solid performance
overall. We had a successful order intake that included firm orders
from a broad base of customers located in both traditional and
emerging markets. A few of these included Flexjet LLC, VistaJet,
American Airlines, the Ilyushin Finance Co. (IFC) of Russia and
Iraqi Airways."
"Bombardier's strategy of geographic diversification in targeted
countries continued to gain momentum in 2013. Our focus to expand
our products' presence in growing international markets yielded
results with orders from customers based in Africa, Asia-Pacific,
China, the Middle East and Russia. We are encouraged by the volume
of orders for both business and commercial aircraft, and the
resulting strong order backlog. As well, we achieved a significant
milestone with the sale of one of our Bombardier 415
amphibious aircraft to a customer in the U.S.," added Mr.
Hachey.
Business Aircraft
In 2013, Bombardier delivered 180 business jets, compared to 179
for the previous calendar year ended December 31, 2012. Bombardier
delivered 10 fewer business aircraft in 2013 compared to guidance,
mainly due to the transition from the Learjet 40 XR and
Learjet 45 XR aircraft to the Learjet 70 and
Learjet 75 aircraft, which entered into service in the
fourth quarter of 2013. During this same period, the company
received 305 net orders for business jets, compared to 343 for the
previous year.
Commercial Aircraft
In 2013, Bombardier delivered 55 commercial aircraft, compared
to 50 for the previous calendar year ended December 31, 2012. The
2013 deliveries were in line with guidance. During this same
period, the company received 81 net orders for commercial aircraft,
compared to 138 for the previous year.
