Substantially damaged 28/10/2014 in a forced landing at Langford, near RAF Henlow, Bedfordshire. According to the synopsis form the official AAIB report into the accident:
"The aircraft experienced a loss of engine power whilst in the visual circuit at Henlow. Unable to restore power, the pilot carried out a forced landing in a nearby field, during which the aircraft struck an obstacle and was damaged. The pilot, who was uninjured, reported that the loss of power had been due to induction system icing; conditions at the time were conducive to such icing".
Damage sustained to G-BSIM: Damage to left landing gear, left wing and fuselage.
NOTE: According to the CAA database, the registered owner is "Falcon Flying Services" of Biggin Hill, Kent. However, on the Henlow Flying Club website (see link #3) G-BSIM is listed as one of their aircraft, so they are presumably the operators but not the owners.
