Alright, I can already tell its soft, not sure if it was focus or motion as I was panning.
Also, sky is blown out as well.
Anything else I didn't get on this one?

1/200 is pretty slow to be capturing a plane in flight.

Ouch, yeah you needed more shots and play with exposure more. play with your EV and bring up lightness in PP.

ISO is too low to get the shutter speed you need at f/7.1. Also, get a polarized filter for the sky. Barring a good polarizer, at least turn off AWB and set it to sunlight if you are going to shoot the sky in your shots.

motion blur?

Too dark for shooting that plane with your lens.

At ISO 100... At ISO 800 no problem.

Somewhere along the way I lost the shadow of the prop.

speeding up your shutter speed will help with the blown out sky also.

OutDoor action I usually start ISO at 400 and get a grip of the other settings by the LCD review. I set the blinkies to show the blownout and dial accordingly or as close as I can get.
< name shows where I start the F stop at. then its just a matter of shutter to totally freeze it or to pan and hold it.

Ok, well I will bear all the advice in mind. But if I pushed the shutter much higher wouldn't I also freeze the prop?
ISO 400? I usually try to keep my ISO as low as possible to reduce noise.

if it does freeze the prop (though it is moving faster than the plane) it can be motion blured in PS. Noise does come into play just depends on the camera as to when. Noise for the most part can be handled with practice and software.

ISO 800 is no problem in broad daylight. Digital ISO noise would be most problematic in darker sections of the image, but you're shooting a bright sky (and overexposing to get detail on the plane underside, most likely), so you won't have too much "dark" in your photo. As long as you don't try to over-process the image, you probably won't notice unless you're specifically looking for it.

At ISO 100... At ISO 800 no problem.
Only if you want added noise. Shot was taken at nearly 8pm. I would suggest taking that same shot earlier in the day, or with a better lighting angle.
