Reviews

An interesting book for anyone who does not want the in depth reasons the Arrow died, but wants a closer look at this stunning jet. * Cold War Model Making * You can't help draw comparisons with the sad story of the TSR.2, but the blow was more devastating, as it took out Avro Canada, and lost many thousands of skilled people their jobs, forcing many to move to the US for work. This is an excellent book to get a full picture of the period, and you can sense the pride that author Lawrence Miller feels for what is still an incredible achievement, even now. Very highly recommended. * Britmodeller.com * Modellers will appreciate the varied shots of the aircraft. * Airfix Model World *
