Damaged in an accident on 10 August 2010. Both occupants were uninjured. The aircraft adopted an unusual attitude while the pilot's attention was directed to the autopilot and GPS controls on the centre console. On recognising this unusual attitude, the pilot made a brief attempt to recover control before activating the aircraft's ballistic recovery system. The aircraft descended under the parachute and landed in open ground. Was rebuilt as a Cirrus SR-20 G2 and registered as G-CHPG.
