Tourist, Shoreham was always unsafe, just look at the geography. The casualties were on the display axis about 150m from the end of the runway. Meanwhile paying spectators were at least 230m laterally displaced from the display axis. It doesn't take a masters degree in geometry (or indeed air display expertise) to figure the least unlikely location of a crash.
