The planes were spotted over the city centre as well as (perhaps unsurprisingly) near Leeds Bradford Airport, according to eyewitnesses across the city.

It has now been confirmed by the RAF that the pair of F-35 Lightning aircraft were on a training exercise.
A spokesperson confirmed the aircraft were from RAF Marham, in Norfolk, and completed a "routine training sortie" over Leeds.
Witnesses took to Twitter asking what on earth was going on.
