Airshows - stoopid question.

Sorry, but I'm not quite sure where to post this - Mods, please move as apropriate (but preferably not to jetblast).

I have been going to airshows for over fourty years, and since Mrs Synth became Mrs Synth, she has been going to them as well. On the way home from Biggin Hill this year, she asked me how they are financed.

Er

Um



I had to confess I had no idea. I assume some are done on a charitable basis, and others are to some extent comercial ventures. I assume that the RAF and other air forces have a budget for displays, probably under Public Relations or some such.

Could someone put me straight?
