Now if somebody did it with an SR-71 or the Spruce Goose, THAT would be exciting.

Under the seaplane exception to FAR 91.119 it might even be legal for the Spruce Goose.

Spruce Goose is 80’ tall. She’d have to be at 70’ or lower to clear the bridge!

She might have done it, going by that first run she made and lifted out of the water for a bit.
