What is the min altitude of an f-35c, the lowest I can go over water is 300 feet an f-18 can go 100. Is this what it should be? I thought in the earlier db's you could go lower, but that can just be an age thing. Thanks

There are a lot of factors that affect the minimum limit. Pilot proficiency, presence of a TA/TF radar, overland or overwater, time of day etc.

In this airshow the minimum allowed was 200 feet.
