Thank you very much, Mr. Chair.
Welcome to both of you, and thank you for attending, Mr. Coyle and Mr. Lagueux. It has been an interesting morning so far.
Mr. Coyle, I have a copy of the Ottawa Citizen this morning, and you've been quoted extensively about the C-130J and your experiences in the U.S. There's one quote here that says, “Mr. Coyle said the C-130J was sold to the U.S. as an off-the-shelf product, but the plane has faced numerous problems.”
As it turns out the C-130J has not been an effective aircraft.
That's a direct quote in the article. I wondered if you could expand a bit about your own experience with that aircraft and give us your assessment of the plane, please.
