grass was also too long
Found it a pleasant day out, beautiful weather, agree with the aircraft parked on the crowd line blocking the view and long grass obscuring the runway and associated take off/landings, crowd line far removed from the runway in any event. Organiser said today attendance was 10,000 overall and the grass is unable to be mowed because it is of some rare native variety subject to some sort of heritage conservation order.
My thanks to the T-28 crew who allowed this ex aviator of same to renew his acquaintance.
