    They are flying much slower here to give a better show, which gives them a much tighter turn radius and more time to react. It’s also a meticulously planned and practiced route.

    sounds like it really

      It’s no big secret, they have 360 in cockpit views showing the process from the crew’s point of view. They’re also flying with their flaps out which limits them to below 250 knots.
