Volunteers members of the Toronto Aerospace Museum (TAM) build a full scale medical model of the Avro Canada CF-105 Arrow at Downsview Airport between 1998 and October 2006 when the aircraft was rolled out before large crowds. The original supersonic Arrow program was cancelled by the Canadian government on February 20, 1959 and all Arrows scrapped except for a cockpit and one wing set. In Sep. 2011, the Museum was evicted from Downsview Park so the historic DHC hangar could be demolished to build a hockey rink. The Arrow model moved to YYZ on Sep. 21-22, 2013 and later to Edenvale Airport.

Full scale replica of the CF-105 under construction at Downsview. The Arrow was a large twin-engine delta winged all-weather fighter which first flew in 1958, but the programme was controversially cancelled in 1959.

All aircraft cancellations can be viewed as sad from a particular perspective but the story of the magnificent Avro CF-105 Arrow, an aircraft that would still have been state of the art and ahead of its time twenty years later, is particularly poignant. After the destruction of the prototypes and subsequent supression of the aircraft's legacy very little has survived. This set of Prototype 3's wings has been placed in storage in the Reserve Collection hangar at the Canada Aviation and Space Museum at Ottawa - Rockcliffe.
