Some stunning flying there.
The helicopter sequence was unbelievable!
There's no way most countries would allow flights like that so close to buildings or under bridges (or take-off on bridges)!
When the RAAF flew their "dump and burn" routines over the Brisbane river during Riverfire it was always at 500 feet minimum.
Still pretty spectacular at night!
For the modern man who lives in the city, riding a bike might be one of the only ways to escape the humdrum monotony. To take off and ride. To be both at one with nature and one with the bike. To feel masculine. Adam Piggott

500 Ft is a good height for the dump and burn.   I was at Richmond Airbase when an F111 did a practice run up the flight line at about 100ft, it was noisy and quite hot.

They did the display at 250ft, much cooler.
