Thank you Indrek, there's some great stuff there. All it lacked was an
Avro Arrow, but perhaps you're saving that for later!

Thanks for the kind words.

I passed a sign for Avro Arrow Road in Nobel on the drive down to Hamilton.
I think there was a design office there that dealt with the Orenda engines
that were to power the Arrow. There is also a full size model in a museum in
Downsville or somewhere similar in north Toronto. Some years ago I posted a
couple of pictures of a surviving Arrow nose section in at the Canadian
Aviation Museum in Ottawa. The conspiracy theorists think that one example
of the prototypes escaped the scrap man's axe. That will have to do in lieu
of an actual example of the aircraft. LOL

Cheers,

I appreciate your comments. I enjoy taking the pictures and sharing them
with others who have similar interests. There are quite a few more that I
will post as soon as I have time. I have been busy competing in a sailing
regatta this weekend.

Cheers,

Yes, the film about that was on our TV a few months back. An interesting
view on the apparent wrecking of Canada's then innovative and
potentially world beating aircraft industry.
