Swede - awesome pictures. Great clarity.

From the pictures file info, I can see you are shooting with a 50D, mostly at 200iso, from 1/400 to 1/1000 and at a focal length of 100-400mm. What were you using for glass for the long 200mm+ to 400mm shots?

Thanks guys. Everything was shot with a Cannon 100-400L. I also shot everything in the full size RAW files so I would have more info to crop if needed. I think it is about perfect for an airshow as you can still hand hold all day and not miss anything. There was a guy beside me with a 600 mounted on a tripod but he was very limited in what he could do.

Mike, I actually went down Friday night and stayed at my sisters in Pinehurst Friday night and then took my nephew with us from there Saturday. We came back to her house and then stopped by Rockingham IHRA on the way back Saturday.
