Great

Since yesterday, the maximum number of participants is reached.
Due to high demand, the final number was increased from 300 to 500. so, it could be that some of you will still get a confirmation the next days.

Wish luck to everyone and let us hope for nice, sunny weather without to much heat!

My friends, the road distance from Athens is 350 km and from Thessaloniki 150 km.

Don't forget, except a rental car, there are also the relative cheap KTEL long distance busses running multiple times per day from both cities to Larissa:

For the friends who received a e-mail from 348 MTA the last hours:

As far as I know, the only case that someone will not be accepted would be, if the respective embassy says so to the HAF. So, if you have behaved yourself in your home country and are not on any "blacklist", you should not worry

Regarding the sending of your data to the embassy, just send a e-mail with a short explanation and a passport copy to your respective military attache. The HAF has contacted the embassies and tha attaches know what to do.

My friends,

please find below a message from 348 MTA.

Dear friends,

in order to avoid any misunderstanding we would like to inform you of the following:
The list with 535 spotters is final and there will not be any further increase of the number of participants! The first 535 who sent the application are on the list and will of course participate in this event! Someone will only be excluded if the relevant authorities find anything alarming for the security of the unit and of the entire organization. This is not in our responsibility!
For the record, the number of 535 came after the huge participation from your side, by increasing the initial number of 300 to 500, and the good will from our side to satisfy as many of you as possible.
We just had to stop by 500 due to eventual organizational problems and timely begining of the security checks! We should not forget that this event takes place in a military area with certain restrictions!

Finally, please forgive us any omissions or errors since it is the first time for all of us, that such an event is organized in this way!

Thank you very much for your understanding!

[114PM]

Dear friends,

a small message from 348 MTA:

Just inform the embassy about your visit and attach a copy of your passport / ID card.
Only the persons that will not be allowed to participate, because of security reasons, will be informed personally.
Whether or not the embassies will answer, is outside of our control.
The security check is in progress.

Just ensure that you book a accommodation, since there is increased demand during this days!

Many greetings

Dear Marcus, since we are just a month away from the day, do you have any sort of indication on other local and foreign participants?

Thanks

Dear Alizam,

this week, 348 MTA will send instructions for the spotterday to all of you. Included in them, is also a list of the invited countries.
As always, nothing is guaranteed until you see it landing in front of you
