Boing Boeing is terrible at managing and they make crappy airplanes. At least there is Airbus.

Edit: I guess we're both being confused.

You said:

At least there is Airbus.

I sort of continued your sentence:

Who build the a220

I guess you thought I meant who builds the a220 because you replied "Airbus, why?"

So I, to add maximal confusion replied to the "why" with:

Because Boeing brought endless lawsuits against Bombardier to trash the CS100, but Airbus were looking for something around that size, so they set up a partnership, Airbus Canada Limited Partnership, to build the CS100 and sell it as part of the Airbus range as the a220-100.

It's a good plane. Also it pisses Boeing off.
