Groppo Trail Mk 2 G-TRLL: Substantially damaged 10 July 2022 in a landing accident at Sleap Airfield, Harmer Hill, Shrewsbury, Shropshire
The incident was the subject of an AAIB Correspondence-only Investigation, and the following is the summary from the AAIB Accident Report:
"During a landing on Runway 36 in benign weather conditions, the aircraft “swung violently left” on touchdown. The pilot tried to correct, but the aircraft swung right and then left, and tipped onto its nose as it came to a halt. The pilot stated that the approach and flare were normal, and he was unable to explain the cause of the loss of control as no issues were found during a subsequent inspection of the aircraft."
