On 24 April 2014, the aircraft was taking off from a private grass strip at Slinfold, West Sussex, when the pilot sensed it was no longer accelerating. He abandoned the takeoff but the aircraft left the runway at slow speed and ran into a ditch. The pilot is not aware of any conclusive reason for the lack of performance but suspects that carburettor icing may have played a part.
Damage to aircraft: Nose landing gear detached, damage to propeller, engine, firewall, fuselage skin and cowling. All of which deemed the aircraft to be "damaged beyond economical repair", and registration G-ARML was cancelled by the CAA on 1 September 2014
