I have nothing new to add to this discussion other than to concur with TexASH Pilot regarding the regs for open water-and-ice and to point out that I believe this airplane is not being repainted; the polished skin is it's color, and I think it's beautiful!

Buzzing people and sleds is not nice and pretty stupid to boot, but is it possible he wasn't below 500 feet? To the uninitiated 500 feet can look pretty close...

I saw him off States Landing beach the weekend before the derby. He was no higher than 50' but I think was buzzing his buddies who were fishing on the ice.
