Default arrow RL201

hi folks

well, the 16th was my birthday, and some good friends decided that a celebration was in order....after three bottles of wine, smoked salmon, and some good cigars i have the following to report. the other day i had a discussion with one of these people about the avro arrow....as it turns out, her father in law worked for orenda, who built the engines for the arrow. at the party tonight she handed me an envelope and in it was an 8 x 10 b&w glossy from the day they rolled out the first one rl201. avro gave these out to employee's in attendance that day....a great picture tied to a great piece of canadian history that never got the chance to "spread its wings" my thanks to them both!! mike


now it's hangover time
