I went through an ex USN, ex-Spanish P-3A. The data plate was on the right side of the cockpit.

It was interesting that it had the pre-1962 (P3V-1) designation on it.

The plane was owned by the local aviation trade school at the technical college and later passed onto Aero Union for use as a fire bomber.

Interesting web site presumably in Spanish and the forum is timed at seven hours ahead, so location probably in the Americas?
