CSeries takes off on maiden flight
Linked Flightglobal Article said:After months of delays and build-up, Bombardier’s first CSeries flight test vehicle has finally lifted off, departing runway 06 around 09:55 on a cool morning at Montreal's Mirabel airport.
A crowd of hundreds of mostly Bombardier employees gathered along the runway cheered as the aircraft became airborne – its Pratt & Whitney PW1500G geared turbofan engines nearly inaudible from a few hundred feet away.
