This aluminum circular slide rule has a D scale on the base and C, CI, and A scales on the rotating disc. (These scales are not marked with letters.) Parts of the D and C scales are shaded in blue and yellow, and the CI scale is printed in red. A clear plastic rotating indicator is fastened with an aluminum screw and nut. The center of the rotating disc is marked: CONTROLLER, and a black arrow indicates the origin point.
The slide rule fits in a round, dark blue plastic sleeve. The sleeve is marked: C-L (/) CANADAIR LIMITED. The instrument was probably distributed as a promotional item by Canadair, an aircraft manufacturer established in 1944 that was the Canadian subsidiary of General Dynamics from 1954 to 1976, when it was nationalized. The company was acquired by Bombardier Inc. in 1986. The slide rule was probably made around 1960.
