The Shoreham Airshow will not go ahead in 2016 after a crash during last year's event which left 11 people dead.

The decision was taken primarily out of respect for those killed when a Hawker Hunter crashed on the A27 in August, organisers said.

The Civil Aviation Authority may also review its airshow regulations after the conclusion of its investigation into the crash.

Airshow organisers said the Shoreham display might still take place in 2017.

"When and if it is appropriate to do so, we will explore the possibility of a 2017 airshow. In the meantime, we continue to be fully committed to assisting the Air Accidents Investigation Branch with its ongoing investigation."
