Re: Renting... is it worth it?

The worth (and thus the answer to your question) is entirely on you. Since you say you are looking to step your game up, it would sound like you are up for the added expense if it means better photos (and it should!). Off the top of my head, your current kit sounds like the standard "base"...

Re: Thunder Over Michigan 2019 "Corsair Crazy"

Re: EAA AirVenture Oshkosh 2019

Just caught this post from EAA that they are relocating the Federal Pavilion where the government agencies have booths to one of the main exhibit halls (D). I noticed this line in the post, which is news to me: https://eaa.org/airventure/eaa-airventure-news-and-multimedia/eaa-airventure-news/eaa-air...
