A Tornado has landed safely at RAF Lossiemouth after suffering engine problems.

The alarm was raised on Thursday morning when the Tornado suffered a mechanical failure with one of its two engines over the Highlands.

Rescue aircraft, including the Stornoway Coastguard helicopter, and emergency crews were dispatched as a precaution.

An RAF Lossiemouth spokeswoman said the plane landed safely.
