This video is the history of the CF-105 Avro Arrow from the idea all the way to the sad cancellation. The music playing is 99 Luft Ballons by Nena. Whats going on: from 00:00 to 00:21 there are the scematics that show the change from the cf-100 to cf-103 o cf-105. 0:21 - 0:30 the Arrow scemes are being shown. 0:21 - 0:42 the tests on the mini-Arrows on Nike rockets and building of the Arrow I (25201) is shown. beetween 0:42 - 1:03 the first public rollout is being shown, including the famous picture "the future looking at the future!". 1:03 - 1:26 is the first flight of the Arrow. 1:26 - 3:15 shows all the other Arrows (you may catch a glimpse of the RL206) flying and some pictures of the brand new Iroquois engine for the Arrow Mk. 2. 3:15 - 3:50 shows the aftermath and destruction of the Arrows, including the famous "Death Row" picture and an artist depiction of the proposed Mach 3 interceptor version. 3:50 - 4:03 is the credits.
