Bombardier Customer Delta Connection Signs for Three More Bombardier CRJ200 Regional Jets

TORONTO, ONTARIO--Bombardier Aerospace today announced that Delta
Connection carrier Atlantic Southeast Airlines (ASA) has placed a
firm order for three Bombardier CRJ200* regional jets. The jets
will be delivered to ASA in the summer of 2003.

The order, valued at approximately $68.7 million U.S. ($104.5
million Cdn.), represents the conversion of three existing options
from Delta Connection's industry-leading order for Bombardier
CRJ200 and CRJ700* aircraft to be delivered to carriers ASA and
Comair through 2004, with options extending into 2010.

The transaction brings to 237 the number of firm-ordered
Bombardier CRJ100* and CRJ200 aircraft by ASA and Comair, of which
191 have been delivered and 46 remain on backlog. Three 70-seat
Bombardier CRJ700 aircraft have been delivered to ASA, with 54
remaining on firm order for ASA and Comair. Delta Connection holds
options for an additional 389 Bombardier CRJ200 and CRJ700
aircraft.

Together, ASA and Comair operate more Bombardier regional jets
than any airline family in the world. Comair pioneered the
regional jet revolution in North America in 1993, when it launched
regional jet service in the United States. The entire Delta
Connection fleet today - ASA, Comair and SkyWest Airlines - has
more than 220 Bombardier CRJ Series regional jets under Delta
direction.
