“They even fly over residences of unconsenting non-spectators.”

This statement is utterly false. Not true. There are no manmade structures within the pattern (racecourse), save the pylons. They may fly over residences during takeoff and landing but not while racing.

I was referring to air shows, which I have attended, not the “see a death every couple years” air races.

Look at the fatality rate of participants and spectators for air shows, Reno-type air races, Red Bull races, and car races. One of those has a fatality rate averaged over recent decades of hundreds of times the others.
