2. Presumed refund for exhibitiors who pay four figure sums for their pitches (I am guessing, so by all means enlighten us anyone who knows)
3. Lack of sales on merchandise (would a t-shirt for an airshow that didn't happen fetch more or less on eBay?!)
4. No show DVD to sell come autumn
...that RAFCTE faces bankruptcy?
2. Traders & exhibitors pay upwards of a couple of grand for their pitch depending on its size and location (RIAT is one of the more expensive shows to exhibit at in the UK on the basis that traders can mint it on a good day). T&Cs typically state that the organisers have no liability to refund pitch fees in the event of cancellation.
4. Was involved in the filming last year - found out they only sell a few thousand DVDs & RAFBFT's take is minimal.
The organisers certainly won't be able to afford any c*ck-ups or acts-of-God next year.
