CF-105 Arrow, 1957

 

A beautiful Canadian designed and built delta-winged aircraft - the Avro Arrow. It was a technical and aerodynamic achievement for the Canadian aviation industry as the CF-105 held the promise of Mach 2 speeds at altitudes exceeding 50,000 feet. It was an advance on its peers in other countries but unfortunately it was just too expensive for Canada at the time and the government of the day cancelled the program after only a few jets had been built. Too bad. Its first flight March 1958 and cancelled in February 1959. Only five were built to completion. This photo of the plane on the tarmac was supplied by gnomemeansgnome as was the overhead shot below..
