Rio Olympic Aerials
Great opening ceremony but what on earth did the aerial team think they were doing? Fully wide angle and still it was all wobbly. 
In the end the director gave up using them except for the fireworks (and no, it's not sour grapes, we didn't bid).
If the rest of the aerial coverage is to look like that then I fear our industry just handed yet another role to the drones ... on a platter ... gift wrapped. I shudder to think what will happen for the marathon.
So glad to have worked with all the real pro aviators in Athens, Melbourne, Doha and South Africa.
