Please note the following for RIAT 2017:
• Friday will be a public day with a 4 hour flying display
• Park & View - Wednesday, Thursday & Monday

Not uncommon. Usually the Reds depart Fairford to display at Silverstone and then return. Can't see how it's much of a problem, unless you wish to attend RIAT and the F1.

Following the feedback regarding the 2016 FRIAT and Viewing Village grandstands, in particular the awful small/narrow seating (including the UKAR review ); the contract for the 2017 grandstands has been awarded to the previous supplied from 2015 and earlier. The seating widths.etc should return to "normal" for 2017 as a result.
Great news!

Now if we could just the the grandstands moved south of the taxiway that the static is on then they won't be obscuring the view of the 98% of the paying public that don't have access to them.
"Oh look - a flying pig!" etc
That comment is a little silly do you not think?
-I don't thing 98% of the 'paying public' would fit behind the Grandstands.
-Those of us in the grandstands are not classed as 'Paying public' ?
-you have at least another mile either side of the grandstands to choose from.
I am sure that overall the grandstands do not really obstruct the view to anyone apart from part of the take offs, landings and of aircraft movements on the ground while standing behind them and you would be silly to just stay behind them at close proximity anyway.
