Avro Arrow

When the Arrow project was cancelled, everything related to it was destroyed, I think the nose section in the National Aviation Museum in Ottawa is a mock up. The photograph was bagged in a local Legion.

Someone has recently found some of the models fired out over Lake Ontaio from a site new Picton if my memory serves.

Even today this would be a world beater,the engine ,airframe and electronics were second to none...The TSR2 jigs were also destroyed by the government...more money for the Lockheed empire...Muray Peden wrote a great book on The Arrow...Fall of an Arrow ,I think....He also wrote ,A Thousand shall fall,bio. about his time in Bomber Command...superb.......

BBC Future is running a piece on the Arrow. www.bbc.com/future/article/20200615-the-...ill-haunts-a-country

I had a tour of the store at the National Air and Space museum in Ottawa. Theres bit in the store from the Arrow.
