Tributes have been made to a Dorset airman who was killed in a plane crash in southern Afghanistan.
The plane came down 12 miles west of Kandahar in Afghanistan
Flt Lt Leigh Mitchelmore, 28, from Bournemouth, who served at RAF Kinloss, Moray, died when a Nimrod MR2 came down on Saturday.
The weapons systems officer was said by defence officials to have had a "very bright future" ahead of him.
A technical fault is thought to have caused the crash, which killed 14 servicemen. An inquiry is under way.
On Monday all non-essential flights, with the exception of search and rescue, were grounded for a day of mourning at the RAF Kinloss base in Scotland.
A spokesperson for the MOD said Flt Lt Mitchelmore had "a natural ability and personality that perfectly suited him to the Nimrod role."
