Your air show weather looks a lot like our normal air show weather. ;)
In color managed FF3, they could use a bit more contrast. Be aware that what you're seeing here is probably not what some of the rest of us are seeing? Take a look at: Firefox (3.0.4) + add ons (http://photography-on-the.net/forum/showthread.php?t=602787)

Thanks everyone for the comments. Shooting in the dark, flat light or lack of light was challenging, but the show was great. I was surprised they even flew that day.

Set it to sRGB and forget it. Looking at web stats on my employers as well as my domain, FF has about 9-11% of the market. It looks great to the 91% majority

Color managed browsers will come of age when it's included IE. PP for the masses.
