This single CASA 212.200 Aviocar was bought at the end of 1994 to complement the number of DHC-6 Twin Otter in existance. Plans for more CASA 212 to be bought to replace the DHC-6 Twin Otter have not yet been implemented, probably due to budget considerations. This aircraft is operated by the Escuadrón de Aviación de Apoyo General 603.
