I think airshows have always been entertaining but I can understand the need to restrict maneuvers and stick to straight forward flypasts after recent tragedies.

This remind me the recent car crash in a Rally at La Coruña, where seven people died too. These kind of shows are allways dangerours and security cannot be guarantied 100%. The spectators must know that. They are taking risks if they go to see those shows.

You are right Alejandra. I agree. If governments are going to allow this sort of show, the least they can do is supply strict rules and regulations that will reduce the accidents to a minimum.
