I’ve raced in the Round the Island Race many times, but never flown the course or around the IoW on race day.

With 1600 yachts, there are always a few news helicopters, but has it turned into a “hornets’ nest” of heli activity over the past years?

I’m planning on flying down from about 2hrs post start when yachts should be rounding the Needles. Any feedback from recent years re guidance/restrictions?
