I am tired of seeing developers come in and destroy anyone’s historical heritage for the sake of a few dollars. Hang in there members of the Canadian Air & Space Museum! Shame on you Crown Corporation Parc Downsville Park. Give them a long term lease for a Loony. Go find another place to develop. It’s a big country.

My belief is that the Avro Arrow which did 1800 miles an hour in level flight and 1200 miles an hour in a climb peeling the paint off it’s own wings should be kept for our future generations to learn about.
