Just to be clear, they were clearly informed of this fact !
NO! As I arranged the visit for the AGL, I have never been told or read anything about one photographer per group.
I have reviewed all documents and E-mails, and not once has the above been mentioned.
If I knew, I had cancelled the visit.
When did you organise your trip ? I'm 200% sure that for visits in March 2011 you already had to send in advance a complete list of participants (with indication of who the photographer was going to be). I had my visit on March 2nd !

Best regards,

Laurent

Let's all not forget that when a "large spotters event" is held (i.e. hundreds and now even thousand-plus of visiting photographers) the organisation at KeeBee is second to none! :respect:

Can't think of many airbases on continental Europe that have this great tradition as well... :idea:

As I stated before, I was told no visits what so ever are allowed during the COMAO. Hopefully KB, or whoever is in charge of the decisions about visits and spotterdays, will change their mind.

what are you talking about? which COMAO? Why in the "Airshow" section?

As far as I am aware, there is "just" a helicopter exercise scheduled in September with the helos opterating from Leopoldsburg barracks and/or nearby Sanicole airfield. The helicopter exercise will be supported by SOME fixed-wing aircraft operating from KB which is not the same as a Combined Air Operation (COMAO) like the TLP flying part, "Flag" exercises or former Tactical Air Meets ...

So no large-scale exercise at KB NOR an airshow NOR as spotters day.

So what is the purpose of this already 2-page-topic in this section?
