Gents:
I've only just discovered this thread! I'm not ex-military, but an enthusiastic Chipmunk owner and a bit of an amateur historian of the breed. Readers may be interested to know that there are several surviving ex-RAF Chipmunks here in SE Queensland:

This one is lurking in a shed in suburban Brisbane, undergoing restoration, and is very elusive...
Do any of these feature in any PPruners logbooks?
For completeness, there are 6 further Chipmunks in the area, but these were either very early RAF retirees or always civil aircraft - I doubt they would appear in your logbooks. Is there any interest in me posting photos/details of these as well?
