To allow N.A.I. scientists to study closely the effects of ice on their equipment, an eight-foot high dorsal fin has been coo- structed in the middle of its back, giving it a shark-like effect. This, together with extra observation blisters and other internal and external gadgets caused quite a stir in New Yorks-The plane was greeted. by grinding newsreel•and television cameras and the anon- pifig of flash-bulbs. Even vet- eran U.S, airline Pilots crowded around for a good look at the wagon. And as for the purpose of the trip itself—to present Papers to, the annual meeting of the Ilustir tute of Aerondotical Science -- that too was most successful. A number of U.S. delegates to the convention went out of their way. to congratulate John Orr and Donald Fraser, both, of N.A.E., on the splendid 'work they and their colleagues are doing in, this im- portant field. In addition, a large number ac- cepted the invitation of John Milsum, project leader on the aircraft, and F/L Doug Eiden, wagon captain, to tour the Ice Wagon while it was at LaGuard- ia airfield. To climax the four-day trip to the 'U.S., an American Mustang interceptor, obviously intrigued by the weird silouette of our plane, spent about 15 minutes rolling and looping around the wagon to get a close look. Yes, no matter how you look at it, Canada's Ice Wagon made Its presence felt in New York. 1. Short Term-5 years 2. VA% interest payable boil yearly 3.
