Speaking as a non-flyer, I have to agree with Albert's comment about Shoreham, the airfield is small, I may be correct in my understanding that the Red Arrows don't display at Shoreham due to the proximity of various close by land marks, there is a large church on high ground not too far from the airfield boundary and the dual carriage-way flyover also within the confines of space which if transferred to somewhere like Waddington or Fairford, would fit well within the airfield boundary. Indeed, the A27 at Shoreham is probably no further from the runway than the primeter at most large airfields, such as the afore mentioned.
