The CS100 is a brand new Bombardier aircraft that is designed to completely solidify the company's position as the third largest airplane manufacturer in the world behind the two undisputed heavyweights Airbus and Boeing.
This particular aircraft features a distinctly narrow body and comes in a twin-engine setup. It is capable of holding between 100 and 150 passengers, and will offer wider seats, oversized windows and spacious overhead cabins for a better passenger experience.
Additionally, the aircraft will offer a healthy maximum range of 3,300 nautical miles, thanks to the use of Pratt & Whitney PurePower PW1500G engines.
This Bombardier aircraft is set to enter service later this week in the reliable hands of Swiss International Airlines. The airplane's efficient engine, low-emission performance and low noise levels will make it a welcome addition to many airline routes.
