French term or phrase: au rhythme des meetings
The full sentence is:

De mai à octobre, elle sillonne le ciel de l’Hexagone au rythme des meetings. À l’instar de tous les ambassadeurs de l’Armée de l’Air, la Patrouille de France va à la rencontre des spectateurs

"at breakneck speed" or am I barking up the wrong tree?
Thanks.

Explanation:
I think the idea is that they appear at lots of public events, with "au rhythme de" meaning "with the same frequency as".

Explanation:
May be it is too literal. However, the expression itself denotes speed, so it does not seem necessary to add anyhting else.
