I was at RAF Heany near Bulawayo in the then Rhodesia in the early fifties. 4 FTS used Tiger Moths and Harvards but they phased out the Tigers for Chipmunks. When the FTS was folded in 1954 they auctioned off all the transport, aircraft and equipment. If you were, then, as some people were, you could have got yourself a brand new Chipmunk, in its crate.
