CS100 Slips to 2015

摘要

Bombardier Commercial Aircraft has delayed service entry of the CSeries CS100 to the second half of 2015. The higher-capacity CS300 will follow six months later. The announcement on January 16 had been expected because of the tight certification timetable for the airliner set by Bombardier, which left little room to cope with unexpected problems common to new aircraft. The company had always stated that it would deliver the CS100 to the initial customer 12 months after the prototype completed its maiden flight.
