Southport beach came alive with the roar of fast jets on Saturday as the second day of the annual Air Show got underway.

Southport Air Show brought another day of blue skies and breath-taking aerobatics to the skies on Saturday. As hundreds of cars lined the beach and car parks, the Tigers Army Parachute Display Team began their tumbling descent, adorned with flags.

Blackcats followed with beach explosions that turned the scene into something from a thrilling episode of the A Team, before the Fire Flies aircraft returned with fast-paced ‘near miss’ style flying that had everyone gasping.
