Narrative:Written off (damaged beyond repair) 18/9/2016 when crashed on approach to Hawksview Airfield, Warrington, Cheshire. According to the following excerpt from the official AAIB report into the accident:
"The pilot reported that he was approaching Runway 08 at the airfield with a wind from 090 degrees at 7-8 knots, 10 km visibility, a temperature of 15 degrees C and FEW clouds at approximately 1,500 feet agl. After the aircraft passed over buildings, which lie immediately to the west of the runway, the pilot reduced power for landing.
At the same time, he noticed that the windsock was showing the wind backing to blow across the runway from the north. He did not remember what happened next except that the aircraft crashed onto the runway. Later, he assessed that the aircraft stalled on the final approach."
Damage sustained to airframe: Per the AAIB report "Extensive" damage sustained. The damage must have been extensive enough to render the airframe as "beyond economical repair", as the registration G-MYVY was cancelled by the CAA on 02/02/2017 as aircraft "destroyed"
