History was made at IWM Duxford this weekend, as 98 year-old Harry Heasman successfully completed a wing walk, officially breaking the world record as the oldest person ever to do so.

Taking to the skies in support of charity and in memory of his late wife and son, the challenge was a deeply personal one.

Harry was raising funds for the Lennox Children's Cancer Fund.

He was born in Essex in May 1927.
