If only, 9/10th is rumoured to be Flying Legends weekend.

It's fantastic for sure, but as I said in the RIAT thread, they're at Southport because it's the weekend before RIAT. I'm sure Southport had to work hard to sort it all out, but I think the Black Eagles would certainly want a show before RIAT to get them match ready as it were.

They are pretty good but not sure if they will be able to do their full display due to the limitations at Southport and may have to operate quite a way out but lets hope not.Where will they base themselves.Liverpool or Blackpool or perhaps Fairford as they will have to be assembled on arrival.

Last time they arrived at Manchester in crates and then road transported to Leeming for assembly, iirc I think they also based there while not doing displays.

RIAT and Farnborough are the following week so makes sense.I saw them in 2012 at Waddington or it could have been RIAT.My memory is going and they were pretty impressive.Cheers for info.

If confirmed, this must be the first time in many years an overseas military has taken part at Southport surely!

The phrase is an ongoing joke about stuff doing the loop. I've seen the phrase on here, F.C., and facebook, plus LFA1 and 17 facebook pages. lol

Black Eagles now confirmed by Southport, advertising both days. Not bad for £10 a ticket.

Is there likely to be an evening show on the Friday this year, or just the daytime displays Saturday and Sunday?
