Two Chinook helicopters – which are based at RAF Odiham in Hampshire – flew over parts of Sheffield and Derbyshire between 9.30am and 10am yesterday.

And people had also reported seeing the distinctive aircraft at around 5.30pm on Tuesday.

We have contacted the RAF for more details of why the aircraft have been operating over the area.
