The Montreal-based plane maker said it and engine
manufacturer Pratt and Whitney have determined the sequence of
events that led to the problem.

 

Bombardier said that flight testing was expected to resume
in the coming weeks and that the $4.4 billion CSeries will not
appear at the Farnborough Air Show in July.
