Narrative: The Fokker DR.1 replica tipped onto its nose on landing at the Flying Legends Airshow display. The pilot (Mikael Carlson) was totally uninjured and the damage to the aircraft was also minimal (engine, propeller and the right wing). The pilot stated that this was due to the propeller wash from a Hawker Sea Fury starting up as he passed behind it.
