The development of the Avro Arrow was a remarkable Canadian achievement. Its mysterious cancellation prompted questions that have long gone unanswered. What role did the CIA play in the scrapping of the project? Who in our government was involved in that decision? What, if anything, did Canads get in return? Who ordered the blow-torching of the prototypes? And did Arrow technology find its way into the American Stealth fighter/bomber programme? Palmiro Campagna (Canadian Dept of National Defence) presents the most complete study yet of the cancellation of what was then the world's most advanced aircraft.
