A reason for two RAF planes flying over County Durham at the weekend has been answered after the impressive display was captured by several people.
Those who live in County Durham may have seen (or even heard) two Spitfires going over on both Saturday (September 9) and Sunday (September 10) - which captured a lot of attention.
Taking to social media, the noise of the planes caused a little concern with some reporting that they heard an 'explosion-type' sound.

Despite the loud noise hovering overhead, an explanation for the RAF planes has now been made - and it's all to do with the Stanhope Show.
As part of the show's festivities, two Spitfires took part in a Battle of Britain Memorial Flypast, which saw two planes fly over on Saturday and two on Sunday.
The committee in charge of the Stanhope Show had to submit an application, which saw them become successful in their pursuit of bringing the Spitfires to County Durham.
On the show website, it said: "We are beyond excited to announce that we have been successful in our application to bring the Battle of Britain Memorial Flypast to Stanhope Show 23.
"These iconic aircraft have come to reflect the missions and honour of the thousands of men and women, in the air and on the ground, who gave their lives for this country in the noble pursuit of freedom."
Here are the images of the RAF planes taken by camera club member Bryan Walker:
