Narrative:
The pilot landed at the Issoire-Le Broc airfield to refuel.
The tank in front of which he had just parked his aircraft was not the one indicated by the airfield officials. He then took off again and landed a few meters further on, where the second fuel pump was located. It was during this manoeuvre that the aircraft "hit" the concrete platform, and rolled over.

The pilot, the only person on board the aircraft, was not injured.
