I hear ya. These things move mighty fast and trying to wield a
100-300/4 + 1.4 converter makes for some tricky handholding.
Here is the crop that you mentioned:

At the Norcal PDML outing, in the afternoon part of the group went
down to the waterfront to watch the Blue Angels. Two firsts for me -
I have never seen the Blue Angels perform live and I have never shot
at an airshow before. What I can tell you is that those planes are
pretty darn fast!
At first I was kicking myself for leaving my monopod in the car, but
as the show progressed it became evident with how much the planes
were
all over the sky, that the monopod would have become troublesome to
shoot more up into the air.
