I've now received two e-mails from them regarding the spotters package. It looks like they sent the same mail to everyone, going by the list of addresses on the mail.F17_114PM wrote:I suppose, that the big advantage is that you will be able to be on the other side of the runway for pictures, with the sun behind you.
Anyone already a answer from them?
This is the first one:-
Dear Sir/Madam,
entrance to AFB Čáslav is free therefore you can take photos all planes during whole open day. I required accreditation for open day because of special press area on the opposite side of runway. This capacity is limited and I have in hand two busses for this opportunity. I needed to know how many people have interest. This press area will be available between 11.35 – 12.35 o´clock, time and place will be more specify on 23 May 2009 at 8.00 a.m. at the old gate of AFB Čáslav (entrance from Chotusice).
If you are interested in interview and press foyer, please contact me via d.smitalova@seznam.cz till 21 May 2009. More information about program you can take via http://www.openday2009.eu" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;.
