Flights from a Welsh airport have been grounded after the former RAF base had its operating licence suspended due to a "series of safety concerns."

Training flights had been using Swansea Airport as no commercial aircraft had taken off from the facility on the Gower Peninsula since October 2004.

The Civil Aviation Authority (CAA) has closed all licensed flights following a "recent unannounced safety audit".
