With New Leader at Helm, Bombardier Aims for Level Flight
Business jet orders soften, deliveries increase as Bombardier looks to improve liquidity.
Bombardier took in 129 business aircraft orders last year, less than half of the 305 it recorded in 2013, and its book-to-bill ratio dropped to 0.6:1. However, business jet deliveries increased to 204 last year, compared with 180 in 2013. (Photo: Bombardier Aerospace)

A management shakeup, cancellation of certain dividends and a stated intention to raise $2.1 billion in capital are the latest steps for Bombardier to calm an increasingly worried market as it attempts to improve liquidity.
