Bombardier's delay on CSeries

One month before the expected CS300 first flight, Bombardier has announced a delay of the first flight of CS100, the newcomer in the market at single aisle business setting only 2 years of difference compared to NEO. Seems that the problem is on supplier chain, an extended issue all along the industry as experienced (in a different subject) in B787.
