    Event

    Constructed as a Chipmunk T.20 by OGMA.

    Taken on Strength/Charge with the Forca Aerea Portuguesa with s/n 1319.

    1997

    In November 1996, the FAP decided to modify seven Chipmunks ( FAP 1312, 1315, 1316, 1319, 1335 and 1339, followed by 1306) for IFR training with the AFA. The modifications started in 1997 with the first 5 aircraft at the OGMA works and 2 further with the IAC (Industrias Aeronauticas de Coimbra). The modifications were: installation of a Lycoming O-360-A1A engine with 180 Hp, metal props, new brakes, anti spin fins, new radios, new transponders and a new livery indicating basic training. The first two aircraft were delivered to 1 AFA on July 7th 1997. Richard Farer had done identical modifications to his ex FAP 1345 registered G-OACP. This aircraft served as a test aircraft for the FAP at Sintra. In recognition, Richard Farer was given 3 ex-FAP Chipmunks.

    By 7 July 2002
