Excerpt from wikipedia:

The Bombardier CSeries is a family of narrow-body, twin-engine, medium-range jet airliners that are being developed by Canadian manufacturer Bombardier Aerospace. Models are the 110-seat CS100, and the 135-seat CS300. These were initially named C110 and C130, respectively. In certification documentation, the CSeries family is designated Bombardier BD-500, with suffix -1A10 for the CS100 and -1A11 for the CS300.

This new CSeries jet, which offers 110-seat and 135-seat versions, competes with the Boeing 737 Next Generation 737-600, 737-700, Airbus A318, Airbus A319, and Embraer 195. Bombardier claims the CSeries will burn 20% less fuel per trip than these competitors.

In November 2012, Bombardier announced that the 110-seat CS100 would take its maiden flight in June 2013 and enter service in the second quarter of 2014. The 135-seat CS300 is to follow six months later.

On 16 September 2013, the CS100 took the first flight for the model and the CSeries.
