I currently use both the 6D and 7D bodies with a EF 100-400mm, the EF 70-200mm f/2.8L IS II USM +1.4x III combo and the Tamron SP 150-600mm F/5-6.3 Di VC USD A011 for air shows. With out a doubt the EF 70-200mm f/2.8L IS II USM +1.4x III combo is my favorite. So much flexibility with this lens and either the 1.4 or 2.0 extenders, plus the IQ is out of this world. The Tamron is good, but almost to much lens in a lot of cases and the IQ doesn't quite match either of the Canons. A few samples -
