The Avro Arrow : for the record  Cover Image Book Book

The Avro Arrow : for the record / Palmiro Campagna.

Campagna, Palmiro, (author.).

Summary:

"The controversial cancellation of the Avro Arrow continues to fire debate in the 21st century. In 1959, when the program was killed, all completed aircraft, and those awaiting assembly, were destroyed, along with tooling and technical information used to create this extraordinary achievement of Canadian miltiary aviation. Was cancelling the program the right decision? Did Canada lose more than it gained? Bursting with information to fill in gaps in the Arrow{hooka}s troubled history, and with an update on the latest search for the scale models launched deliberately into Lake Ontario as part of the test program, The Avro Arrow: For the Record tackles the outstanding questions head on."-- Provided by publisher.
