Damaged beyond repair 9/11/82 when crashed at Kimblesworth, two miles west of Birtley, County Durham, during a solo training flight from Sunderland/Usworth airport. Engine failed at 2,000 feet whilst climbing away from forced landing practice. The practice forced landing thus became a real one!
Nose undercarriage collapsed on touch down into a ploughed field, aircraft nosed over, and overturned, sustaining damage to the undercarriage, nose, propeller, and starboard wing.
Presumably deemed at a later date to have been written off (damaged beyond economical repair) as the registration G-ATJU was cancelled 20/4/83 as "PWFU" ("Permanently Withdrawn From Use")
