both of those are prettygood lenses i just got that 70-300 mm for my rebel xt and it works fabulous, not the best light grabing skills but its a good lense when you have light  ;D

I have the first one (the Sigma). Maybe it's me but I'm a tad disappointed with it. Not bad for the price though. Have a look round as you should be able to get it for less than

I'd be interested to know what various members use as lenses for airshows, as this is the first SLR Ive ever owned and dont know that much about the quality of different lenses

since your a beginner avoid the sigma 300mm with macro.
Unless your really lucky with perfect weather, or know what your doing, you wont get the results you want. Trust me. I'm still unable to use mine to its full ability and i've had mine for over 2 years.
