Perhaps bundeswehr.org won't let gmail through its firewall? That's kinda what the message says: denied by policy...

Send them the form for the first time on 11th of April, didn't get an answer too. Tried it again on 23th April, didn't get a confirmation for now! I think they accept only Dutch guys :evil:

What do we earn? We earn/deserve NOTHING.. We must be glad that an airforce is willing to organize something like this. It's not a shop in which we can get stuff and complain when it's not there. But I guess your decision to stay home is wise one, it's a free world..

Well 12 out of the 23 isn't too bad. Taking in account the number in maintenance and on QRA.
Last chance to see that many birdies.

According to http://forum.scramble.nl/viewtopic.php?p=578812#p578812 :idea: it is not of much use hanging about near Wittmundhafen Air Base on the 6th of June after the spotters' day...

There was a second Tornado crossing the field at approx. 300 meters, probably a Schleswig based one.
