Me and VTHokie did the flyover for the Eagles today. Unfortunately the Eagles lost but it was a good time!

What are the rules for rotary wing fly overs WRT altitude and airspeed?
Any luck on the DC LL for the way home

Last I did one, there were no "rules"... It was more along the lines of "don't crash."
Ok obviously speed wasn't an issue, but who did you have to talk to for the altitude?
I asked the question about restrictions because it looked like you guys had carte blanche WRT altitude but may have been somewhat restricted in speed?
Either way, good fly over. You get to land somewhere close and go to the game afterwards?

It may not be a question that should be answered here. I don't mean that as a smart ass to you, LSO, but what CNAF puts out might differ from "video evidence."
No worries Dev.. I'm just curious what CNAF/CNAL put out as guidance? Obviously 1500 and 250 isn't going to apply to rotary wing dudes. What is their stan? I think that's a fair question.
And again, good looking fly over.
From the FAA dude, "do what you want, don't crash"
Yeah, we got on the sidelines for a little bit and then the Verizon VP took us all into his box suite, it was a helluva party, I'm about to go get the hair of the dog on again right now!

This in no way means to say that IBB et al did anything wrong, so please don't take it that way...
The last few fly-overs we did at my last squadron, guidance was 1,000'/90 knots, if that answers your question. I'm not really sure how anyone would actually see anything at 1,000', so I think everyone just looked at their BarAlt and not the Radalt, if you know what I mean.
