	Testing The Avro Jetliner
		We took the Jetliner to Hughes Aircraft in California with the idea of their using the aircraft as a test bed, because of course they could pop up to thirty thousand feet in a few minutes in pressurized comfort - a very fine test bed for them.
		Once the Jetliner was back in Toronto in late 1952, all serious work on the aircraft ended, but I was surprised when I looked in my log book to find out how long it went on flying.
		On another occasion, with Mike flying the Jetliner on a stability test, we had large water tanks forward and aft in the cabin with a pumping system so one could, by pumping the water from tank to tank, change the cg for certification work.

	Jetliner Safety - How Airplanes Fly
		A typical jetliner has wings, a fuselage, and an empennage with horizontal and vertical stabilizers.
		To maneuver, a jetliner uses control surfaces attached to its wings and tail.
		Jetliner wings have leading and trailing edge devices (slats and flaps) that extend during takeoffs and landings (low speed flight) and retract for cruise (high speed flight).

	NOVA \| Crash of Flight 111 \| Anatomy of a Jetliner (non-Flash) \| PBS
		Modern jetliners bristle with complex communications equipment, allowing the crew to keep in touch with what's happening elsewhere in the air and on the ground.
		A network of tubes distributed throughout the jetliner contains pressurized liquid that, through hydraulics, powers the retraction and extension of landing gear, the opening and closing of exterior doors and hatches, and the movements of flight controls such as the rudder and elevators served by the hydraulic actuator seen here.
		Even small amounts of ice on a jetliner's airframe or wings can reduce its lift and hinder the flight crew's ability to control the aircraft, so removal (de-icing) and prevention (anti-icing) of frost, ice, or snow accumulation on the airplane is critical.

		Howard Hughes was so impressed with the Jetliner that he wanted to manufacture it under license at Convair and using it on TWA routes, but the U.S. government would not agree to Convair devoting effort and spce to a civil project in view of the Korean crisis.
		The Jetliner never did go into comercial use but was used as the aerial survey and photo platform for the CF-100 project, as orders were never placed, construction on the partially built secont prototype was abandoned.
		On 10 December 1956 the Jetliner was ordered distroyed, and after contacting the National Aviation Museum turned up no interest in obtaining the aircraft due to a lack of space, the Jetliner was cut up on the 13th of December 1956 with only the cockpit section surviving (in the Canadian Aviation Museum in Ottawa).

	Avro Jetliner
		TWA were trying to get Avro to build them 30 Jetliners and the USAF had allocated funds for the purchase of 20 military Jetliners for jet bomber pilot and navigation training.
		After a number of years of flying in support of the CF 100 flight test program the only Jetliner was finally broken up for scrap in December 1956 after more than seven years of almost faultless flying and paving the way for the new generation of jet transports.
		Despite its premature demise the Jetliner brought respect and admiration for Canada's aviation capability and this was expressed very well by British aviation writer Bill Gunston in his book "Encyclopedia of commercial aircraft." which included this quote " The Avro Canada C 102 Jetliner was Canada's first jetliner.

	GLITZINE
		Jetliner is the latest project by singer Adam Paskowitz (Mozart, The Flys).
		The sound is best described as 70's pop wrapped around Paskowitz's operatic vocals (the man has pipes and isn't afraid to use them), the music remains subdued and often revolves around the piano and light instrumentation.
		While it would be nice to see Jetliner hit it big in the mainstream, I'm a realist.

	melodic.net: Jetliner - Space Station
		Jetliner is one of the most exciting new bands to walk the face of the earth on this side of the century,their stunning debut took me to new dimensions when it comes to melodic pop/rock.
		Nothing bad about that,I like guitars and lots of harmony vocals which Jetliner really delivers big time........but let me just say it this way - Space Station has a few pearls that truly are better as songs than the best ones on the first album but as a whole album I prefer the debut.
		I think the Queen sounding "The reaction" reminds just too much of "Tie your mother down",the pianobased "Keep'n on" has some more vibes a la the debut but not with the same classy chorus and the rocker "Steamroller" sure is a perfect song for the stage but it doesn't belong on a studio album.

		After the explosion, there were few signs of the 60 tons of metal comprising the 757, leading many to speculate that the Pentagon was struck by something entirely different than a jetliner.
		On 9/11/01 the Pentagon was attacked by a jetliner which was supposedly Flight 77.
		However, the overwhelming support among eyewitness reports for the idea that a twin-engine jetliner crashed into the Pentagon suggests a different answer: perhaps the perpetrators suppressed the evidence to feed the no-Boeing theory in order to divide and discredit the skeptics.

		During 1950-51 the Jetliner established several intercity flight records and became a brilliant success in the commercial transport field.
		But perhaps most important, the Avro Canada C-102 Jetliner will best be remembered as the true impetus for succeeding passenger/cargo carrying jet aircraft in Canada's marvelous history of aviation.

	CNN.com - Historic jetliner makes final flight - Aug. 28, 2003
		The Boeing 367-80, a prototype that would become known as the Dash-80, revolutionized commercial air travel in the 1950s when a fully developed version called the 707 took to the skies.
		Boeing's plane grabbed a pivotal share of commercial air travel at a time when the world's first jetliner, the British-made de Havilland Comet, had been grounded for failures in flight.
		The 707's transcontinental service from New York to San Francisco, California, took five hours, compared with the eight-hour flight time of its propeller-driven predecessor, the Douglas DC-7, according to the National Air and Space Museum.
