The Arrow is a very dramatized version of the happenings around the Avro project.
The Arrow is a real feel good movie for us Canadians. Though Dan Aykroyd has had better days, it's important that he was included in the Canadian cast, bringing a familiar face to a long forgotten subject.
Just recently an original Avro Arrow model airplane was found in Lake Ontario.
