Well I guess the hundreds or maby thousands of pictures of jets very close to the water are all photoshopped, the videos also. Not even counting me seeing them myself, that was just an illusion, more than once.

 

Anyone "almost" who has been to the gulf coast has seen military jets and the Blue Angles doing this just for fun, not counting the airshows. 

 

A distraction then a sneak pass just to scare everyone.

I wonder if that would be close enough for them to see me give them the finger.  What a waste of resources.

There is a Red Bull air race where part of the course is flying under a bridge that appears to be about 50'. The Reno air races are all flown at about 50' agl. 

PWK used to fly his Stinson under the bridge outside of Texarkana, and there is at least one man who is around to tell that  tale.

Canadian National was privatized a long time ago. It's publicly traded like BNSF and many others. 

 

Who is the largest largest shareholder of Canadian National? Bill Gates. Bill owns 4 jets, including 2 G650s. Unlike every other business jet that flys in the US, his jets are not tracked on the publically available flight tracker sites.

 

Anyone seeing a pattern here?

only @juniper  can tell us how fast the plane was flying --

Dont know how fast it was going, i was just in awe! If you look up the bridge and see the arches you can see how big they are. People have fallen off this bridge and found their demise.....
