[Avionics Today 10-04-2016] Bombardier has closed the sale of its Amphibious Aircraft program to British Columbia-based Viking Air Limited. The agreement covers the Type Certificates for all variants of the aircraft, the CL-215, the CL-215T and the Bombardier 415 aircraft as well as after-market services. According to Bombardier, this divestiture positions the aircraft manufacturer to better focus on core, higher growth sectors: business jets, commercial aircraft and rail transportation.
