Re: Iran Built A Fighter Jet---Why Can't Canada?

We built a fighter airplane once. Long ago.

> We built a fighter airplane once. Long ago

My dad worked for Avro - as test instrumentation engineer. He worked on the Arrows. I wouldn't be here if the Arrow program didn't get canceled...

I hear that some divers are really close to finding some of the scale models of the avro they shot out over lake ontario.

We must be the most stupid people on Earth, after spending billions and cancelling this project we went ahead and destroyed all the blue prints and cast machines of this jet plane instead of selling them off to recoup our money... aren't we smart?

To anyone that cares Iran has built it's own home-made vehicles since 1984, it's called the "Paykan" or something like that.
