The new 40-150mm lens seems like a great, sharp lens, but you might find it too short for an airshow.  If you are right next to the runway you can get pretty good pics at this focal length as the aircraft fly in front of the spectator stands, but I have found that I mostly shoot in the 200-300mm range.  Good luck getting in there early.
