Narrative:
Lazer Z200 (Modified) G-BWKT: Substantially damaged 25 February 2022 in a landing accident at Solent Airport, Daedalus Drive, Lee-on-the-Solent, Hampshire. The incident was the subject of an AAIB Correspondence-only report, and the following is the summary of that report...

"During a bounced landing the tail wheel attachment bolt failed causing the tail wheel to detach from its spring leg. It was not possible to determine if the bolt failure was caused by a pre-existing defect as one of the failure surfaces was worn away by ground contact and the other part of the bolt was not found".
