On Sunday during the air show I was just north of Solomon's Bridge on my jet ski. I saw one of the Blue Angels fly over the bridge headed North (away from the air show), he did a flip-turn-thing where he basically pushed down on the stick, flipped while looping down and came out of the turn right-side up, facing South (towards the bridge). He obviously had an "Oh Crap!!! Bridge!!!" moment and pulled back on the stick, going almost completely vertical. It looked like he missed the top of the bridge by maybe 20 feet.
Now, I know some other people saw this (at least 3 from what I can tell) and one confirmed that he missed the bridge by about 20 feet. Apparently it looked like he went between 2 of the poles with lights on them at the top of the bridge.
I'm curios if anybody else saw this? I'm pretty sure I was the only one on the water in the area at that time, but I'm wondering how freaky that was for the people on the bridge, and if there are any other guesses on how close he was to the bridge?
This probably wan't the right area to post this, but I didn't know where else to put it.
