Reasonable expectation means what? If you choose to sit on the airfield during an air race then ‘reasonable’ doesn’t mean a whole lot.

Yeah. John F. Kennedy would have agreed.

...and, as most realize, a nonzero chance of being killed.

Same with a car. Yet, very few people died in the Reno air crash, and yet approximately 115 people die in CAR ACCIDENTS EVERY DAY (or about one every 13 minutes).

Children should not be raped in this country, yet 5 or 6 children die in this country from CHILD ABUSE, and "Approximately 683,000 forcible rapes (children and women) occur every year".

I got to airshows and I go to NHL games. Spectators have been killed at both, but I realize that my chance of coming home alive from the Blue Jackets game is 100 times better than from the Dayton International Air Show.

Seriously!? Aircraft are flying within 1 mile performing tricks and/or high G maneuvers and they have a reasonable expectation of safety? Only if they are completely ignorant of physics and history. I grew up around Airshows and Air races. Fans die sometimes when these aircraft crash. It’s life.
