More than 200 people have attended the funeral of a World War Two bomber pilot
after an appeal by friends.

Peter Johnson, from Eastoft, North Lincolnshire, flew 27 operations with 101
Squadron under Bomber Command, flying specially equipped Avro Lancasters fitted
with radar-jamming equipment.

After his death on 9 January, aged 98, his friend Harold Woolger said Mr Johnson
had no direct family and appealed for people to attend the funeral.
