Arbo had an 8 key for sale not too long ago; don’t know if it sold or not:

Do you mean band flutes for marching or concert flutes for folk music?

David,
check your pm’s. Arbo.
Oh, and tell me about your band.

We are a marching band and need b flat, f , e flat, b flat bass and e flat piccolos. We use a mixture of Rudall Carte, Hawkes and son and Hy potter flutes and Hawkes and son copies and require more to incorporate all the parts.

If you want an Eb in the range below your F flutes you may want to check out Paddy Ward. He makes an Eb based on his Hawkes D/Eb combo flute and uses both delrin and blackwood.

Thanks for the info Aaron but we would prefer the originals as we think they play better as these flutes are over 80 years old and as the saying goes the older the flute the better the tune.
