The search for the pilot of a United States military aircraft from RAF Lakenheath which went into the sea off Flamborough Head has been called off. Our thoughts are with the friends and family of the pilot at this difficult time.

HM Coastguard continues to coordinate the search after a United States military aircraft from RAF Lakenheath went into the sea 74NM off Flamborough Head, Yorkshire, earlier today.
Humberside based HM Coastguard helicopter is working with other aircraft in the area, and the RNLI lifeboats from Bridlington and Scarborough continue to assist with the search along with other vessels.
The search is ongoing and we have no further information.
