The Gregor FDB-1 was a Canadian biplane fighter, designed in 1938 by Michael Gregor and manufactured by Canadian Car and Foundry. Despite having some advanced design features such as flush rivetted all-metal construction and a retractable undercarriage, the final generation of biplane fighters was being supplanted by monoplanes and the Gregor FDB-1 was obsolete before it flew. Despite the Royal Canadian Air Force's desperation for modern fighters, the sole example remained unsold and was eventually lost in a fire in 1945. The Gregor FDB-1's model designation stood for Fighter Dive Bomber indicating its intended roles.

  • Le Canadian Car & Foundry FDB-1 est un avion de chasse biplan conçu au Canada par Michael Gregor et construit par la Canadian Car & Foundry. En dépit d'une conception avancée et innovante le FDB-1 a été surpassé par les monoplans plus rapides et n'a jamais pu trouver acheteur. Il fut finalement détruit par accident dans un incendie à la fin de la guerre. (fr)
