Default Mr Potter

Gents, i flew with Mr Potter on a demo flight once .He let me do a few aileron and barrel rolls and other fun antics in a Harvard . He is a true Canadian patriot . He is devoted and addicted to Canadian military aviation history. He reveres ( and honours ) our Vets . My kinda guy. He did have success in business and it is all to his honour to hang around with mere mortals like me . A good friend of mine ( Ex Snowbird ) was involved in the Sabre program at Vintage Wings and it is a very ( extremely ) expensive crate to operate . Per Ardua Ad Astra .

What was the relationship between the 30 mm Aden cannon used in the Sabre to the 30 mm Rarden canon used in the CVR(T) vehicles? Is one a genesis of the other?
