Written off (damaged beyond repair) 18/8/2011 when crashed on landing at Peterborough (Conington) Airport, Holme, Peterborough, Cambridgeshire. According to the following extract from the official AAIB report into the accident:
"The instructor had released the student pilot for a solo flight after a satisfactory dual training detail. During the landing on this solo flight the aircraft bounced and the student decided to go around in accordance with his training. As he applied full power the aircraft pitched up, veered left and stalled. The left wing dropped and the aircraft impacted a field to the left of the runway. The student sustained a minor injury to his left arm but was able to vacate the aircraft unaided. He candidly reported that he probably did not apply the correct control inputs when he initiated the go-around".
Nature of damage sustained to airframe: Per the AAIB report "Substantial". The damage sustained must have been substantial enough to render the airframe as "damaged beyond economic repair", as the registration G-RMCM was cancelled by the CAA on 9/2/2012 as aircraft "destroyed"
