This is very much true of most of the events we do - they're on military land so they don't want people wandering about. Some events you have to provide a list of names of people that will be entering the site and show id when you arrive. It does mean that there aren't any spectators and our service crews are limited in what they can see of the action - but it does allow us to use the venue. It also explains why the circuit based events are popular - after spending hours waiting around in windswept service areas on old airfields and only seeing us flash past every now and again the chance to see us on a large proportion of the stage is quite appealing (apparently!).
