WASHINGTON, Oct 6 (Reuters) - The U.S. Commerce Department on Friday moved to impose additional trade duties on the sale of Bombardier Inc . BBDb.TO CSeries jets in the United States, prompted by Boeing (NYSE:BA) Co's BA.N accusation that the Canadian plane and train maker had dumped the planes at "absurdly low" prices.
The Commerce Department proposed a 79.82-percent antidumping duty after a preliminary finding that the jets were sold below cost to Delta Air Lines (NYSE:DAL) DAL.N in 2016.
