I'm not sure if anyone has come across this 1956 Avro Canada final report of the pre "Avrocar" Avro Project 704/USAF Project 1794 signed off by Jim Frost found at the National Archives. Hope it is of interest to someone. Admittedly a lot of pages are devoted to wind tunnel test rig but theres some good detail.... Ive included a few pics. Hope you Enjoy..Here's the NARA link:https://research.archives.gov/id/6920770If it helps with the cryptic Canadian Arvo designation system then at least the above document might fill in at least one blank. pic Avro 704-2 is the intermediate Y2 design, whilst pic Avro 704-4 is the incredibly optimistic Mach 3 (and then some more) Project 704 design developed from the P.V.704. I've since found out that this doc has been around for a while, but this version is higher resolution and colour scanned.
