Überschlag bei Landung. The aircraft overturned on landing, while engaged in a Feindflug (operational sortie).
Bordfunker Unteroffizier Kurt Schönfeld was injured. The damage was assessed as 70%.
Due to the presence of mist banks over the runway, the pilot held off too high. And so he set the aircraft down on a mist bank at a height of 10 metres, believing it to be the ground. The aircraft then dropped like a brick and started bouncing and turned over.
