Narrative:Alpi Aviation Pioneer 4000 G-CPPG; Substantially damaged 15-2-2023 in a landing accident at Blackbushe Airport, Camberley, Surrey. The incident was the subject of an AAIB Correspondence Only Report, published on 12-10-2023, and the following is the summary from the AAIB Report:
"During the landing roll the left main gear collapsed. The left wing struck the ground and the aircraft veered off the runway, striking a runway light before stopping. The left main landing gear actuator attachment had failed in overload, likely because of high side loads during the crosswind landing".
The last recorded flight of this aircraft (per Radarbox , see link #3) was on this date (15-2-2023) from Blackbushe to overhead Bembridge (Isle of Wight) without landing, and then back to Blackbushe).

The same aircraft had been involved in an incident at Thruxton Airfield, Hampshire on 23-8-2016 (see separate entry)
