The North American T-6 Texan/Harvard was, for an extensive period, the most widely used aircraft in the Portuguese Air Force (PoAF). A total of 257 examples of different versions were delivered between 1947-69 from various countries: 56 from the USA between 1947-51; 15 ex-Fleet Air Arm machines from the UK in 1956; another 56 from France's Armee de l'Air in 1961-62; 70 via Germany between 1964-65 and the last 60 in 1969 from South Africa. These aircraft were given four-digit tail numbers beginning with 16' and '17' and then, somewhat strangely, 15'. The last T-6 ever built was flown by the PoAF with the tail number 1788'.
