Default Closup of a russian jet

In military shows they still overfly the crowd. I have been to plenty of
recent Ft. Lauderdale air and see shows that at least once they overfly the
crowd at least once as they scream in from a missing man position.

..and that is why in the US planes can't overfly the crowd

... Unless the show is on a military base. Some years ago I watched the
Thunderbirds on a base.
One of their routines featured a surprise - the "missing" plane came
roaring over the crowd from
behind - at low altitude and full afterburner. Quite impressive.
