Written off (damaged beyond repair) 09-08-2008 when crashed at Strubby Airfield, Strubby, Alford, Lincolnshire. According to the following summary of the official AAIB report into the accident:
"Following a flight in the local area the aircraft was landing back at Strubby, where there was a significant crosswind from the left. The initial touchdown was followed by a bounce, following which the left wing lifted and the aircraft turned to the right. The pilot applied full power with the intention of conducting a go-around, but the aircraft stalled into a standing crop to the right of the runway and turned over onto its back.
The pilot was uninjured but an elderly passenger suffered a heart attack on the following day. The remaining passengers required on-going hospital treatment."
Nature of Damage sustained to airframe: Per the AAIB report "Moderate" damage. However, the damage was presumably re-assessed at a later date as being more serious, to the extent of the airframe being "damaged beyond economic repair", as the registration G-BFPM was cancelled by the CAA on 03-10-2008 (two months after its accident) as "Permanently withdrawn from use"
