Security

Whilst RIAT is well policed with high security to get in what's the feelings of the group regarding this topic. I suspect Fairford North side is now on highest state of alert.

Apart from aircraft now redeployed elsewhere security must now be a real worry?

Any thoughts.

Depends on the threat.
Are you talking about:
A lone attack on an entrance queue
Multiple attacks on entrance queue
Car bomb in car park or car parks
Paint protest on a particular aircraft
Verbal attacks on specific aircrew nationalities
Drone disruption during flying
?????
And I’m sure there’s many more potential risks

I can't see why it is any different now than before during any other conflict era in the past? It's not like it's anything new

The Threat from pro Palestine groups or stop oil, who could fly drones into the airfield
5 miles out. Then let them hover over the runway for the duration of its battery life,
30 too 50 mins then repeat. New security threats is the Drone.
