I can tell you hanging onto a 7 pound camera system (Canon 5D MarkII) with the 70-200 mm L glass lens and keeping it pointed at a building as we fly a circle around it is nothing like shooting pictures at the beach of girls in bikinis or a day at the track shooting Porsches. That 130 MPH wind blowing past makes it hard to control.
Sounds like a BLAST!
