They're going to get pinched for flying too low over the beach and the people there.  Safety violation.

Still, if I was the commander, I'd just slap them on the wrist and be done with it.  He's now 8 pilots short, and replacements don't come cheap or easily.

Rules are rules.  But, there are exceptions.  Use them.  No harm. No foul.

  • I was a "conspiracy theorist". Now I'm just right.
Standing on that beach, that would have been awesome!

Aside from viral video, people would talk and post and remember that for decades.

No ad on TV can buy that.

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.
