Sun&Fun is an incredible gathering of planes, pilots, photographers and aviation fans! Each year this annual event offers numerous photographic opportunities if you come prepared. One such act is the American Force Thunderbirds who provide amazing aerial displays at this annual event! Knowing their routine allows you to be ready for those special moments that arise each year. You could practice by going in one day winging it (there’s an airplane joke there…), then building upon this experience for day two – or… Most aviation acts feature their routine on YouTube, making it easy to watch and learn their routine to ensure you make the most of every shooting day. Figuring out when aircraft are performing formations like those seen here before their display allows you to make informed decisions regarding whether to shoot vertical or horizontal and at 200mm or 400mm focal lengths – an easy and worthwhile practice that pays dividends on the flight line! Enjoy weekend and airshow fun today and tomorrow!
