Hi there,

Anybody having trouble with the email adres, i am getting emails back that they are not being recieved.

[geert]

Net even naar de aanmelding van vorig jaar gekeken, probeer het eens met 1w-sec-pr@mil.be

Succes.

[glr66]

I sent to both addresses but in my case it is the email to 1w-sec-pr@mil.be that bounced. No news about the other one so it might actually be correct (BTW they just posted on their FB page with that address again)

[arrecoos]

Had that problem as well, but only on my cellphone. After that I tried it on my desktop pc, which worked. No idea why.

[shibumi]

I used both and the one in Piet`s message is working fine at this moment.

Thanks for your help guys.

I spoke to soon it just bounced back again, its not a problem with my computer because i am recieving/sending emails just fine.
Going to try it via my phone, let you know if it works.

Sending it via my phone it works perfect, hope this helps anyone.

Any participants known ? Only french copters into sis section.

[frank kramer]

Just received confirmation e-mail, stating that due to the cancellation of the foreign participants it will be an all-Belgian affair with a static display, an COMAO exercise and displays by all Belgian display aircraft.

[57HEAVY]

Well...not very exciting...
