Thats something that hacked me off about Sun'N'Fun in Lakeland this year. A few years ago they would only let in FAA approved pilots onto the flightline, which ment they never had to close the flightline. Now, since they let everyone in, they have to close the entire flightline during the show, which they close at 11 Am. and the show ends at 5 Pm, and because of the traffic leaving, everyone leaves early.
Which means, when i went on friday, i didn't get to watch the Mustangs and Corsair start up, and the B-29 was in a certain spot on the flightline where they wouldn't even let us see Fifi up close. So i never even got to touch her, much less see her fly. (She was getting a tire changed)
Safety is important, but in this case it kind of ruined the show...
