Evening,
I hope I'm posting this in the correct area.
RAF Brize Norton is proposing to hold a photo event on Sunday 26th June 2016 to allow photographers to photograph the specially marked aircraft currently based on Brize. Details of the event and booking arrangements will be announced shortly.
Regards
Paul

places will be very limited there are two email addresses in the text to send your details if interested they require the following details:
Name
Telephone Number
Forenames
Surname
DOB
Nationality
Address
Car Registration
---------------------------------------------------------
On 26th June RAF Brize Norton will be showcasing its aircraft, many of which are adorned with new artwork. The event will take place between 1400-1800 Local.
We hope to have all four Air Mobility platforms from RAF Brize Norton on display. This will include the LXX Sqn A400M with tail art, 2 x C130Js with Anniversary artwork and the C17 and Voyager aircraft.
How do I get a ticket? Fill out the table below with the details of all those in your group together with any vehicles planned to be used and then email this to: BZN-Av
photoshoot@mod.uk and
47Sqn-PLT15@mod.uk . Those who have been successful in achieving a place will be contacted via email at which point details of how they can pay and where to park on the day will be given. A donation of £25 per person is suggested with all proceeds going towards the RAF Benevolent Fund (Registered charity number: 1081009). These donations must be paid prior to the event in order for us to confirm your attendance. Numbers are limited and will be strictly on a first-come-first-served basis.
NB: We cannot 100% guarantee that all of the RAF Brize Norton aircraft with artwork will be present but we are all doing our very best to ensure that they are there for your enjoyment. However the Royal Air Force is currently operational all over the world and these aircraft may be needed to support Operations. There will unfortunately be no refunds for tickets as these are donations to charity. Also please be aware that for security reasons police dogs may be in attendance and you could be subject to random bag searches.
We look forward to welcoming you all to what promises to be a fantastic occasion

Hi,
this sounds interesting but has anyone heard back yet?
I emailed on Wednesday 6th June and set-up a 'delivery confirmation'. I still haven't had notification that my emails have been delivered to/by the host server. I know of others who had emails 'bounce' from the 'BZN' address.

Ladies & Gents,
I have been in direct contact with the organisers today and they have had IT issues with the published email address but the secondary address is working and emails are being received.
Please be patient emails are being received but personnel have been away on duty they hope tomorrow to start processing applications.
Regards

Would those IT issues be because the email address is wrong? You can't have a space in it, it just doesn't work that way!
Maybe they should give you the right email address Dave, rather than blaming it on "IT issues"...

On the internal MOD network you can type the addresses with a space. As the email address is essentially a role it's how it's referred to internally. Obviously they've forgotten to take the space out when publicising it externally!
