91.119 Except for TO & landing, 1000' over congested

water.

And then there's 91.303, which defines 'aerobatics'
as ' an intentional flight maneuver involving an abrupt
change in an aircraft's attitude, an abnormal attitude,
or abnormal acceleration, not necessary for normal
flight.' Unless waived per procedures outlined 91.903
(eg: for an airshow or aerobatic competition), 91.303
Paragraphs (a) thru (f) prohibit such manueuvering
below 1500' AGL and in certain areas irrespective of
altitude.
