Narrative:On 17 February 2013, the pilot had been airborne for about 10 minutes when the canopy suddenly detached from the aircraft. He made a forced landing at Glaisnock, near Cumnock, East Ayrshire, but the ground was rougher than expected and the aircraft slid to a halt on its nose, having collapsed the nose landing gear.
In addition to the damage caused during the landing, the canopy had struck and damaged the rudder and right elevator when it departed. Although very shaken, the pilot was uninjured. The reason for the canopy detachment was not immediately evident
