Formation Flights at YAF show

One of the few disappointments at the YAF Willow Run show was the lack of formation flyovers by the heavies at the show. A few of the single engined types flew over in groups, but the 4 engined stuff was strung out a 1/4 mile apart. Was this a safety concern on the part of the pilots, or a FAA requirement? What a sight it would of been to get all 6 bombers (4 engine) in one group flyover photo!
