But it won't work too , last year I've sent them a mail and got an answer I was to early and that I had to sent them a mail later , 2 weeks after I've sent my mail to them and then I got a reply , FULLY BOOKED
Too many people knows about this

so many people spoke about it in forums (FAS, FoxAlpha, Check6, scramble, etc.....)

I will not complain because it is thanks them that was able to get in last time

the pb is that some people (some 10 or 15) are really well introduced and go there each time

[Fly Fort]

Yep indeed,

The invitations for the spottersday on 24-3-05 for the TLP are already sended.

You have to be lucky that they choose you.

A friend of mine have sended his mail for an invitation just 2 weeks ago

And I heard some rumours that you can be invited only once a year for the TLP-spotterday

But I have some doubts about that.

Because last years TLP spottersday, I was invited by a good friend and I saw some people that I saw this spottersday also.
That little french guy with diabetic is 1 of them, but I think all spotters now him

There was even a little "incident" last thursday.
He wanted to take a picture of the nose-art on the Tornado and there were some guys in front of him and he start shouting that they must go away.
Also at the gate, the bus was already a few minutes late, and he was walking to the guards to ask (read demand) were the bus was.

But for next spottersday I have still a small chance to get inside with a person I know, so fingers crossed

[Flyboytjen]

Well I'm glad that I have every time my invitation to the SpottersDay at KB (when it is held) It costs a little money but I'm sure to get in. ;D

(maybe we must plan a baseattack with spotters at Florennes ;D ;D ;D

That's maybe the problem at Florennes , it's completely free , they should ask 20EURO too and I'm sure there would be already less interested people and at least we could have a change to get in , because now it's only the good friends of those who are responsable for these spotterdays who can get in , at least that's what I think

Indeed I know this boring guy , that's what they have to do , searching troubles , by doing this , they will stop to let us in , it's already very nice of them you can get in at an active base , don't forget this was not possible some years ago , so we have to follow the rules and have respect for eachother

And I think that guy gets in eachtime , he also pretends he's the best photographer and that he knows lots of peole working at Florennes and he even has contacts with minister Flahaut

[TC]

OW that boring guy, he was last year @ Kleine-Brogel for the arrivals at Sanicole, d***ed he thinks he know everything about airplanes, i really find it a BORING guy

[Djamald]

I think that guy lives somewhere in the those farmfileds around Florennes. Because each time you go to Florennes, he' salways there.
He pretends to be the "local chief" of the spotters community. I remember a few years ago, he contacted the farmer of the land where all spotters where standing, because (in his opninion) ther were to many TEXT spotters. I don't have to tell you that this almost led to a fight with the dutch colony.
