Written off (damaged beyond repair) when stalled immediately after takeoff in tailwind conditions, at Bagby (Thirsk) Airfield, Yorkshire, 20 June 2017. According to following excerpt from the official AAIB report into the accident...
"The aircraft had just taken off from Runway 24 at Bagby and was at a height of approximately 20 feet when the left wing dropped, the aircraft turned to the left, descended and hit the ground. The pilot was uninjured but the aircraft sustained significant damage. The pilot considered the accident was caused by insufficient airspeed coupled with a tailwind component leading to a left wing stall."
Damage sustained to airframe: Per the AAIB report "Both propeller blades broken, landing gear, engine, cockpit, windscreen and right wing distortion". All of which appear to have been enough to render the airframe as "beyond economic repair", as the registration G-BUOK was cancelled by the CAA on 7 September 2017 as "destroyed"
