The airport v lake front relativism never ceases to amaze me. Fly an airplane less than 500 ft vertically or 1,000 ft horizontally of a structure and you are violating federal law, even though at less than supersonic speeds there will be no damage. Most pilots won't buzz a structure or a person, mostly out of common courtesy and safety, but also because he/she may lose flying privledges. Blast past a dock at wake speed in a 3,000 # boat, disrupting swimmers, damaging docks, swamping boats and in Alabama there is no penalty of the law. Common sense isn't all that common any more.
