It is and it isn't. The MAA has always had tighter regulations regarding displays than the CAA and have made a simple decision based on the risk to sea borne traffic. As such, this is unrelated to any AAIB or CAA regulation.
As the AAIB bulletin reported last week, non-paying airshow viewers, including the dreaded "freeloader", should be afforded more protection than paying punters.
