In a special breaking-news edition of The VIP Seat, Jessie Naor and Preston Holland unpack President Trump’s overnight Truth Social post threatening Bombardier decertification and 50% tariffs on Canadian aircraft over stalled Gulfstream certifications. We break down what’s actually happening behind the scenes, how aircraft certification reciprocity works between the FAA, EASA, and Transport Canada, and why this move—while dramatic—fits a familiar Trump negotiation playbook. From supply-chain exposure and fractional fleet risk to the broader geopolitical context involving Canada, China, and U.S. manufacturing, this episode separates real operational risk from headline panic and explains who should be paying attention—and who shouldn’t.
