Im attending my first airshow with dslr tomorrow and I'd like some tips on how to shoot the show!

Its at Alliance in Fort Worth and I know many of you will be there as well!

I've got a Cannon T2i, strapped with a Tammy 18-270 and I'll have a seat as show center!! :D I'm gonna shoot the statics and the demos and I know the crowds will be a pain in the rear but oh well!

Any pointers will be helpful. Mode/Settings/Speed/An​ything and everything!!

Thanks thats a great link, and sorry if I posted the question in the wrong thread. Just wanted to address the right audience!

BTW Im really lookinf forward to testing out the VC on my Tammy at the airshow i figure this will be a nice way to gauage its effectiveness. Again maybe the wrong forum, but thanks anyways.
