Written off (destroyed) 18-04-1991 when crashed near Stanmore, Middlesex. The pilot (the sole person on board) survived the initial crash impact, but died later in hospital. During the subsequent AAIB and Coroner's investigations, it was discovered that the pilot's ability to fly was seriously compromised by a high level of alcohol in his bloodstream (325mg of alcohol per 100 ml of blood). Indeed, it was so apparent to Air Traffic Control (due to the pilots calling in to ATC) that the pilot was drunk, that they had called the Police, who had planned to use a breathalyzer on the pilot when he landed at Panshanger.
Damage sustained to airframe: Per the AAIB report "aircraft destroyed". As a result, the registration G-BJCJ was cancelled by the CAA on 13-05-1991 as "aircraft destroyed"
