Description

The Aerospace Heritage Foundation of Canada, is a group aviation pioneers and enthusiasts, who are trying to gather plans, models, parts, drawings, photography or any artifacts relating to Canada's great aircraft manufacturing industry of the era from 1945 to the mid 1960's with particular interest in locating any memorabilia relating to the A.V. Roe company. One of our goals is to locate and retrieve at least one of the nine Avro Arrow models that were fired aboard Nike Booster Rockets into Lake Ontario 40 years ago for Vehicle Configuration Aerodynamics testing, as there were no large scale Supersonic wind tunnel facilities in those early days. The Toronto Aerospace Museum (TAM) is building a full scale "museum quality" replica of the AVRO ARROW, so that present and future generations of Canadians can see what we were capable of , and what was destroyed forever by a thoughtless government on February 20, 1959 in what has become known as the "Greatest act of Vandalism" in Canadian history. We are helping the TAM achieve this goal.
