No. Why don't you look at it and tell me how wide that "very nice
corridor is"?


Because you obviously don't believe me. I would rather wrestle with a pig
than continue intercourse with your obtuse behavior.

I suggest you learn how to look at photos produced through telephoto
lenses.


In other words, you have no idea how wide that "very nice corridor is".

I was there. I saw it from a high vantage point. It appeared to be more than
500 - 800' or so.
It is the same every year.
Historically, vessel operators are pretty cooperative from my observations of
being on the water during these events.
The CG, FD and others enforce limits when necessary.

Thank you. That's consistent with the estimate I made based on the number
of vertical cables and distance between them. 500 - 800' wide means they
were less than 500' from persons, vessels, and structure.

The 500' rule only applies to you Steve, and for good reason.

Maybe so.

Just for grins, I contacted the Blue's PR dept. to see what is established
for these performances.
Now I'm really curious to see how close my visual estimations were.

Mr. McNicoll, you do not speak for me. Do try to remember that.


Nobody is speaking for you, your messages make it clear you have no idea how
wide that corridor is.



As I said before, I suggest you learn how to look at photos produced
through
telephoto lenses.


Your messages also make it clear there is no benefit in following your
suggestions.
