    Here is a video from the local TV station WFRV in Green Bay WI.
    The program is called "Local Live 5" it is on at 9:00 am to 10:00 am CDT daily.
    They were broadcasting live from EAA Airventure on Friday 28th of July 2017
    Their back drop was the B-1 bomber.

    The 1st person they interview was Dick Knapinski Communications Director for EAA.
    At 2:05 into the video the news anchor asked him if people can put their chairs over there and walk around, he kind of says "You can"

    The program is a hour but on the TV station's website they edit the program into segments.
    Below are some more cool stuff they talked about during the program.

    streff, yes your location selection is not a problem. The problematic ones are the ones right on the 'burn line' and between the rows of aircraft. The best option is directly in front of a high wing airplane. Provides shade and 99% of the time you are safe from having to move. Perhaps in the future I should just adopt to the new policy of leniency. I did see an area 'roped off' on Saturday between four airplanes spanning a row. I am not sure if it was EAA or owners doing so, but I can imagine flight line land rush becoming like opening day at Camp Scholler if many adopt this policy By the way the line move up land rush Saturday after the last Blue Angel recovered was a hoot!
