Agree that Brighton/Hove/Shoreham seafront could be a good location with a huge local 'catchment area'. The Red Arrows used to regularly perform at Brighton (ergo the Hawk clipping the mast of a yacht between the piers). As an ATC cadet we used to be detailed-off to help the RAF ground display counterpoint set up their 'kit' Hawk on Hove lawns; in fact I got a quick ride in the RAF Gazelle that also landed there during the event (1983 or so?). The RAF rescue tender also used to attend and I remember they hosted Anne Nightingale on board one afternoon.
