Item 1.01     Entry into a Material Definitive Agreement.

On December 14, 2006, the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Eastern District of Virginia, Alexandria Division, approved a Global Settlement Letter between US Airways Group, Inc. and Bombardier Inc. which had been executed by the parties on November 10, 2006. The Global Settlement Letter amends the master purchase agreement ("MPA") dated as of May 9, 2003, as amended, between the parties. The Bankruptcy Court authorized the assumption of the MPA, as modified and amended by the Global Settlement Letter. The parties agreed to modify and amend the MPA to terminate all obligations of US Airways Group to purchase and take delivery of 42 firm aircraft remaining undelivered under the MPA, as well as the rights of US Airways Group to purchase and take delivery of 90 additional aircraft and options to take 94 aircraft in the future. All obligations of Bombardier to manufacture and deliver these aircraft were also terminated. The MPA was amended to provide US Airways Group with the right to purchase Bombardier CRJ 200/700/900 series aircraft from time to time during a period of five years. The Global Settlement Letter further provides that all pre-delivery payments held by Bombardier be returned to US Airways Group. Under the Global Settlement Letter, all claims of Bombardier asserted against US Airways Group and its subsidiaries in the Chapter 11 cases were resolved and Bombardier was granted a total aggregate allowed general unsecured claim in the amount of $147.5 million.
