Before its free-flight tests, the Avro Canada VZ-9AV Avrocar was flown with tethers for safety reasons, at the National Aeronautics and Space Administration’s Ames Research Center at Moffett Field, Calif. Wind-tunnel tests proved the aircraft had insufficient control for high speed flight and was aerodynamically unstable. (U.S. Air Force photo)
