Southport Airshow 2010- 18th-19th September - Preview

The Southport Airshow is unique. Taking place over the extensive sands off Southport, it is the only "seaside" airshow where aircraft can land and take off in front of the public. Birkdale Sands has always been associated with aviation and was even a licensed airport at one stage. This is usually the last airshow of the season will full support from the RAF display teams as well as a varied mix of civilian and historic displays.
