The state's been doing this for decades.
Very easy for them, since its all taxpayer money.

Not really. Vinay Bhaskara at Bangalore Aviation did a great analysis to show that $500million in compensation is a fair amount.

Nope. Compensation is usually "paid" in the form of discounts, either against current orders, or against future orders.
Since I don't think AI has any plans to order any new Boeings any time soon, I assume that the compensation would be adjusted against their current order.
