Avro Arrow Toronto

Avro Arrow

Beautifully done full scale replica of the Avro Arrow rolled out at the Toronto Aerosape Museum this weekend. Arrow was Candian built, advanced fighter. Ahead of its time and killed by the government of its day. Now, speculation is that US applied pressure to end project?

Didn't know there was a Toronto Aerospace Museum but the crowd to see this was impressive. Lots of people on hand who worked on the original. Museum is at Downswview Airport, which is home to Bombardier and right under the approach from the east to YYZ.
