The U.S. International Trade Commission (USITC) unanimously rejected almost 300 percent duties against Bombardier's CSeries airliners in an unexpected ruling on Friday. The duties were imposed by the Department of Commerce late last year after Boeing launched a claim alleging the CSeries were being dumped on the U.S. market at below-market prices in a deal with Delta Air Lines for 75 aircraft. Boeing said the cut-rate airliners, made possible by government bailouts of Bombardier in Canada, unfairly harmed its business.
