The Hellenic Air Force will attend with F-4E PI2000 from Andravida AB.
The plan was to have the RF-4E, but due to the disbandment earlier in May, it changed to the Andravida Phantoms ...

Some info on the expected participants taken from the comments on 1 Sqn's Facebook page..
Greek Phantom, Polish Mig-29, Italian and Spanish EF2000, British Hawks, Belgian F-16 (including a big surprise) and some special guests, but still unconfirmed so far.
Re: Spotterday Tactical Weapons Meet Florennes
Special guests = Maybe some Tiger planes?
Re: Spotterday Tactical Weapons Meet Florennes
There is a problem with the sign up email for the spotters day. The mail box is now full. Hopefully it will be fixed soon. 7/3/2017 02:00.
Re: Spotterday Tactical Weapons Meet Florennes
Yup had the same problem yesterday evening. Tried again this morning but same result. Wonder if this might be oversubscribed
Re: Spotterday Tactical Weapons Meet Florennes
Probably just a case of the mailbox not being set up to accept massive images (I think the three passport scans I attached to my email totalled 15MB!)
If you're on Facebook, you might wish to let them know you've paid (don't post any personal details!) and that you're not able to send the email through yet...

What is it like to photograph here from off base? I would like to get some pictures of the exercise aircraft while I'm in the area on Friday June 10.
Thank you for your help.

TACTICAL WEAPON MEET – UPDATE 4 – PLEASE SHARE!
Dear Followers,
We are in the last sprint to the 15th of June and our Spotters Day. A whole lotta info will be sent by mail to the people who are registered, and via our Facebook page later this week.
But there is one info we want to share: LAST CALL!
The registration is closed the 1st of June! At that date, all registrations must be done. That mean that we must be in possession of a copy of your ID card, and payment must be done.
We are looking forward to meet you in Florennes in the upcoming weeks!
