here are all known dancing fly formations (dff) with 7 or more flies!  
this is where brute-force computer search seems to come to its limits, so it's not clear if these three are all possible 7- or 8-fly dffs,  not to mention dffs with 9+ flies which might exist!  
  
so far, we know 21 dffs all in all. when will the 22nd one be discovered? :d  
  
left:  
name: soaring-17 / the tourist   
related to: soaring-25 / three busy bees (see part 4)  
direction: up  
speed: 1 step in 17 frames  
  
middle:  
name: swarm-b8  
direction: up  
speed: 1 step in 2 frames  
  
coming from right:  
name: swarm-f8  
direction: left  
speed: 1 step in 2 frames  
  
the last two are the fastest known dffs!
