L1951 was forced down after being damaged in a dogfight with He115 seaplanes. It was recovered and repaired. Suffered three subsequent accidents. The last, when it struck a hedge on takeoff at Chipping Sodbury on February 2, 1942, proved to the end of the road for L1951. At the time of this non-fatal accident it was with a training unit.
