FARNBOROUGH, England (AP) -- Canadian planemaker Bombardier Inc. issued a challenge to bigger rivals Boeing Co. and Airbus with the launch a new aircraft range on Sunday.
The C-series aircraft will carry 110-145 passengers and is designed to compete against the aging Boeing 737 and Airbus A320 jets -- as well as the 98-114 seat ERJ 190 by regional jetmaker Embraer, or Empresa Brasileira de Aeronautica SA.
Bombardier's largest plane currently flying, the CRJ-900, has a maximum of 88 seats.
The launch on the eve of the Farnborough air show in southern England marks the Canadian company's entry into a key market for Airbus and Boeing.
