..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.

A friend went to the UK for an F1 race, he said the airshow before the raced
was better than the race was. They didn't care where the crowd was they flew
anywhere!
