Isn't she a beauty?
This is a older model of mine I just finished up today.
A little history:
You non-Canadians may wonder what the Avro Arrow is.
It was a Canadian built aircraft that was well ahead of it's day.
Unfortunately, it was canceled near the end for various reasons that have come to light, and with much controversy
It's main purpose was to intercept Russian bombers if the Cold War erupted openly. They were the main threat as they carried Nuclear Weapons. By the time of it's cancellation though, ICBM's had surpassed the bombers as the main threat, and fighters would not be able to intercept them.
That is one of the supposed reasons of the cancellation, as the US market was gone.
Another hypothetical reason for the US governments opposition to it was that it was the only aircraft at the time that could get high enough to check out what the US Spyplanes were doing.
It is hard to believe that this aircraft was approved in '55, and being built soon thereafter.

It could be used as a flavour unit for Canada maybe?
Oh, and yes, aircraft are much easier than ships, but I am not planning on doing too many, there are lots already.

It's great that you have done this canadian beauty. 
Well you could say I expanded into watercraft. When I first started modeling for Civ 4 this was the obvious choice to learn with. Not to hard to model, not to hard to add to the animation (No turrets etc).
