Thanks for the comments.

I’m sure with the very long distance from the spectator area to the threshold of the long runway, somewhere could be easily found for these aircraft in order to be able to still have them close but completely clear from the view of the airshow. As you said, the Edwardians may on occasion be at the far right but as I have suggested subsequent to the first post, the GA aircraft could be partially to the right so that those interesting aircraft and pilots could still be close to the crowd.

That way, perhaps all people would “be fine” with the arrangements intead of a very few, which of course is always the goal. As we have seen from another poster, I am not the only one that was disappointed which means that there are plenty more out there who, while were no doubt interested in the GA aircraft, probably will never see another Edwardian anywhere on the takeoff roll and can see these GA aircraft and their “interesting pilots’ at just about any airport on any day of the week.

I’m sure that all can be accomodated by simply moving the GA aircraft out of the way and getting them out of there efficiently after being so graciously accommodated. A couple of replies here sound like the very tall thinking the “present arrangements are fine” when they are blocking the view for everyone behind them.
