FSX Scenery--Ota Air Base. The Ota Air Base (BA2), created on December 31, 1937, was inaugurated on April 14, 1940, near the town of Ota, about 50 km from Lisbon, Portugal. In 1960 the BA2 changed radically, no longer a basis for an Operational Base Instruction. In November 1976 was created the Centro de Instrucao n02 (CI2), for elementary education pilot, radar experts and the integration of training schools and military preparation technique. In 1992 the designation of Air Base 2 is amended to Centro de Formacao Militar e Tecnica da Forca Aerea (CFMTFA) which gives the training military, humanistic, scientific and technical staff of the Air Force, whose scope is not covered by other organs of the Air Force, with the aerodrome currently closed to air activity.
