This particular picture is a cut above most aviation shots, especially relating to aviation shows themselves. There are a number of reasons for this:

The saturation and colour variant - I'm very impressed with the varying colour saturation in this picture - particularly in how the top left corner, where there are deep blues, in contrast to the bottom right corner, where the colour is almost completely white. This dynamism automatically adds a degree of effectiveness, professionalism and authenticity to the shot and is executed perfectly.

The angle of the shot: In many aviation photographs, one cannot help but be underneath the shot - and weird angles are commonplace. In this picture, the angle compliments the shot by making the planes really appear to be flying into the white, giving it a three-dimensional effect which is further complimented by the cloud streams behind the planes.

The title of this piece speaks well to it - Syncronize - as these three beautiful planes were shot in almost perfect form.

The clouds themselves frame the planes in this picture perfectly. You could not have asked for a better arrangement of clouds in this instant of time - they come up across the full vertical length of the left of the picture, and give the piece the flow it needs to compliment the direction the planes are in. Very well done there.

Overall this picture is

from me. I'm very impressed with it - the technique is solid, the impact is very good, it's quite original (for it's type), and it is obvious you had the vision of this picture in mind when you caught it.
