Nonsense. None of these images need any further sharpening, they’re fine as it is. The Reds one is softer from haze and distance, and over-sharpening will do nothing to rescue that.
The name randomly blatted near the middle of each shot does however detract from them significantly.
Perhaps its just a matter of taste, and the settings I used were very modest – but you’re right about the Reds, it doesn’t improve at all – just – as you say – gets noisier.

Brilliant shots very nice like the spitfire and typhoon shot, and The Blue Eagles.

Thanks for the Tips, In future I wont bother with the name I dont think.
No I didnt use a teleconverter. cant be bothered with one as Im just trying to spend a year getting used to manual settings before I can afford to go DSLR.

Not bad at all.
But, if I may suggest, your images will improve significantly if you add just a smidgeon of unsharp mask.
I took the Wingwalkers photo and subjected it to :
Radius 1.50, Strength 50 & Clipping 5, and it really helped. You got the shutter speed just about as good as can be expected, & focus is good too.
I suspect the Reds photo will improve somewhat too.
Did you use a teleconverter? If so, which one?
