Narrative:
Substantially damaged 7 May 2017 when overturned at the end of its landing run at Barton Ashes Airstrip, 2 nautical miles West of South Wonston, near Winchester, Hampshire. The pilot sustained only minor injuries. According to the following excerpt from the official AAIB report into the accident:

"The pilot reported that he was on a local flight from Barton Ashes, during which the weather was fine with a light and variable wind. After an uneventful landing, as the aircraft came to a stop, its tail lifted slowly and continued to do so until the aircraft came to rest inverted. The pilot, who suffered minor injuries, vacated the aircraft through a broken side window with the assistance of a bystander.

The pilot attributed the accident to the strength of brake action. The aircraft sustained severe damage predominately to its cockpit structure and its engine was shock-loaded."

Damage sustained to airframe: Per the AAIB report "[severe damage to] Engine cowling, canopy and frame". By a strange coincidence, G-BIAH seems to have crashed every ten years for the past 20 years, whenever there's a "7" in the year: it had previously crashed on 14 June 1997, 29 August 2007, and this time, on 7 May 2017
