This aircraft was written off (damaged beyond repair) on 22nd February 2006 when crashed into a field 13 miles north of RAF Marham, Norfolk. The pilot reported a reduction in engine power, possibly caused by carburettor icing, and was unable to maintain height and made a forced landing in a field, but during the landing roll the nose wheel dug in causing the nose leg to break and the aircraft to flip onto its back. It was cancelled from the register on 26th June 2006.
