Many thanks for the update

I've amended my original post #442 to reflect the US Civil Registration of N801WP. You certainly have a fine looking aircraft there in Montana.

Hopefully Aeromys' elderly Mother will be pleased to hear that WP801 is still flying after all this time since she last flew it in the early 50's.

Thanks also for sending recent pictures and your permission to share with the PPRuNe Mil Chipmunk Appreciation Society

WP801 History update ...

The pre-naval career of WP801 was with Home Command White Waltham/15 RFS Redhill. She was usually tasked with various ATC summer camps and then put back into storage at Kemble, hence the low hours. WP801 then went to Plymouth in August 1966.

Best ...
