Also, been trying to find physical copies of Turnabout and South China Sea to read, but it seems they're all out-of-print/expensive, and I'd rather not throw away £200 for a physical copy.

Smol update, but the story has flashbacks to August 28th via the characters watching video footage recorded from that date. Currently reading, so will update if there's more dates to list.

Okay, yup. The last page of the story takes place on August 30th.

Is it an actual flashback or a description of the footage they're watching?

Actual flashback with dialogue and all.

Currently reading these two issues, and are we sure that the Field Journal entry in the first isn't isn't a date?

It's definitely set on June 320th, 2009. 
kidding, btw. I don't know if it is or not. Maybe it's set on June 9th.

Earth-1987
1 appearance(s) of Earth-1987 5 image(s) of Earth-1987 4 characters that originate from Earth-1987 1 teams that originate from Earth-1987
Earth-TRN1638
12 appearance(s) of Earth-TRN1638 89 image(s) of Earth-TRN1638 1 characters that originate from Earth-TRN1638 1 locations that originate from Earth-TRN1638
These might be the same reality based on official statement. I actually imagine that the Captain America crossover might be either Earth-TRN1638 or Earth-7642 honestly.

Another reason for this, an older Harrigan appears in a Predator short story. You'd have to account for his age too. I don't think there's any contradictions to them both being taken shortly after Predator 2 between chapters of Stalking Shadows. They don't have to reference everything that happens to them.
It just means that they escaped back to Earth around 1998-2000 off-screen (until another movie comes out).

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I thought Prometheus retconned the Predator movies as Alien canon?

Nothing in Prometheus contradicts the Predator movies. Peter Weyland formed Weyland Corp in 2012 and Charles Bishop Weyland formed Weyland Industries prior to 2004. That's it.
How would the Weyland Corp from Death Race fit in hypothetically?

I don't wanna talk about it.
Basically, different Weyland guy is in charge of a subsidiary probably.
According to Beyond Anarchy, the subsidiary has retconned to being called Weyland PrisonsI don't wanna talk about it.

I thought Prometheus gave a different backstory for the relation between the Xenomorphs and the Yautja, apologies

It has no connection to the Yautja. I think there's a proven false narrative that David 8 created the Xenomorphs too, but we know that's not the case.
