Five Cold War pilots have reunited at the RAF airfield where they trained 50 years ago.

Back then, they cut their teeth behind the controls of the Jet Provost before going on to fly aircraft such as the Buccaneer, Jaguar and Tornado.

They may be pilots from another era, but they remain part of the Royal Air Force family, and as former members of RAF Leeming, they'll always be welcome at the station.
