They depart after the Airshow at Scampton for an overseas tour.

No reds, but the organisers have promised something special as a replacement.....No idea what, but if their past history is anything to go on , i'm not holding my breath!

Hi,

I think the big announcement was the the Sea Vixen and the B-17 would be displaying on both days of the airshow, but you never know with Southport, they may have a few bigger acts booked and yet to confirm.

Norwegian Mig-15 & 2x Vampire confirmed, shaping up well!
