Assessing personal needs wrong?

I have no wish to buy a D800. ... I'm interested in shooting aircraft at airshows and my kids and pets running around, so a decent framerate is a requirement.

I'm wondering how many airshows one can go to each year, and how 4FPS is unacceptable for that while at the same time cropping capability is not considered a fantastic bonus. Also, 8fps is not required for 'kids running around'.

Rent a D800, give it a try!
