Overturned after making an emergency landing at Fairoaks, Woking, Surrey. According to an eyewitness report: "Gusting wind from the south, a/c ran off the Right Hand Side of Runway 24 approximately halfway down, unfortunately the ground was still very soft, nose wheel dug in, then propellor and over she went. Minor cuts to the 2 Persons on Board, otherwise OK."
UPDATE: Per the official AAIB report into the incident...
"After a normal touchdown the aircraft started drifting to the right with a crosswind from the left. The pilot applied left rudder but the aircraft departed the runway surface to the right and flipped inverted as it came to rest. The pilot assessed that he may not have been holding sufficient into-wind left aileron after touchdown"
