Blackpool Airport issues a warning ahead of its annual Blackpool Air Show, urging visitors to help prevent problems caused by seagulls. The event is scheduled to draw a large crowd, with reports suggesting around 350,000 people are expected to attend. The air show takes place at Blackpool Airport and features several major military and display aircraft acts. Among the planned highlights are RAF Typhoons, which are expected to take part in the show’s flying programme. Organisers also plan performances by the Battle of Britain Memorial Flight, a UK-based group known for operating historic aircraft associated with the Battle of Britain. The Red Devils, the RAF’s aerobatic display team, are also listed as part of the schedule. Sources describe the airport’s seagull plea as a precautionary step to support safety and smooth operations during the event. The show’s mix of modern fast-jet demonstrations and historic aircraft appearances is central to the programme being publicised ahead of the weekend.
