The incident was the subject of an AAIB Correspondence-only Investigation, and the following is the summary from the AAIB Accident Report:
"The pilot was flying his third approach to Runway 08, having gone around on the two previous approaches due to being too high and fast. He reported being a little high on the third approach, and bounced on landing causing the nose landing gear to detach."
