A few from a very enjoyable Southport air show.

Blue Max, according the PA ‘Chattering Man’ at Southport Seafront, the Brietling Team, with three sponsor marked aircraft, are currently being packed for a trip to China. I note you comment that the aircraft at Southport N54922 is not usually about much, but not only that, it was in plain non-sponsor colours.
Hopefully the Mods will permit me to hi-jack this thread to link to a Merseyside forum site with extensive (and if I can say so) equally impressive shots at the Southport Air Show for both days, with visitors and participant lists:
On Saturday:

On Sunday:

Thank you Mods and Derekf for not needing to start a new thread for a link.

I would have loved to see Meteors at Southport.
The soundtrack of my youth, growing up in Formby, was the Meatbox at full chat.
Nice pictures, thanks.

Good to see 54922 out and about for a change 🙂 They are Pyro’s on the Cub Wing tips 😀

Nice shots.
That Meteor shot with the rainbow effect is something.
The panel deformation on the Stearman are “interesting”.
What are the attachments on the wings on the Cub do you know?
