Beskrivelse

Today's conversation takes us to one of the most remarkable, and heartbreaking, chapters in Canadian aerospace history. In the late 1950s, the Avro Arrow promised to put Canada at the forefront of aviation technology. Sleek, delta-winged, and designed to outrun the cutting edge of Cold War, it was hailed as one of the most advanced interceptors in the world. And then - almost overnight - it was cancelled. A rare interview indeed, enjoy. Dr. James Burt, Professor Emeritus notes the Avro's engine was named the Iroquois, and he had worked on the control system for the engine.
