<p>[QUOTE=&quot;moreotherstuff, post: 4543570, member: 56&quot;]The Avro Arrow project started in 1953.&nbsp; Known as the CF-105, it was a supersonic long range interceptor designed and built by A.V. Roe Canada.&nbsp; It was the most advanced aircraft of its day, with its first test flight in 1958.&nbsp; The government scuttled the project in 1959.&nbsp; Its a source of controversy to this day.&nbsp; There are posters of the Arrow out there, but I haven&#039;t seen one quite like this.&nbsp; From the caption, &quot;It took Canadians to shoot it down.&quot;, this must have been made after the cancellation of the project.&nbsp; It was a hot political issue for a long time. Poster measures 16 1/8&quot; by 23 1/4&quot;.</p><p><a href="https://www.thecanadianencyclopedia.ca/en/article/avro-arrow" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="https://www.thecanadianencyclopedia.ca/en/article/avro-arrow" rel="nofollow">https://www.thecanadianencyclopedia.ca/en/article/avro-arrow</a></p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]402549[/ATTACH] </p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]402550[/ATTACH] </p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]402551[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
