I don't have a problem with this. However, the inevitable conclusion
is that putting on a better show - one that draws a lot more spectators
- justifies having more fatalities.


Do you have some statistics that show that better shows are riskier shows?

Different governments have different approaches to this. For example,
Holland has a hard and fast rule - no aerobatics below 500 AGL, ever.


Got a cite for this?

No, it's not a good argument right here and now. Cutting expenditures
has to start somewhere, and it's very hard to argue that entertainment
is a bad place to start.


It's a bad place to start. "Entertainment" expenditures often bring in more
revenue benefits than other types of spending. Or do you object for ethical
reasons?
