This aircraft has obviously now fully recovered from the damage incurred in a landing accident at Newtownards Airport, County Down, on 27th May 2021 when, during the flare to land, a gust of wind lifted the right wing causing the left wing to contact the ground and it swung to the left towards a steel fence. As the pilot attempted to avoid the fence the right wheel entered soft ground swinging the aircraft through 180 degrees and it came to an abrupt stop on its nose. (With thanks to the ASN web site).
