North Star aircraft - slush measurement testing
Trans-Canada Air Lines - Air Canada.
Under the heading 50 years on and still making aviation history following appear in Glasgow Herald April 10, 1987:
The company developed, tested, and used "slush measurement standards" for runway take-off conditions in snow. It was experimental with the North Star aircraft between 1946 and 1948 and the standards laid down were adopted by the US and British Civil Aviation Authorities.
Can anyone shed some more light on this?
