Written off (damaged beyond repair) 23-07-2016 when crashed approximately 1.5 miles North East of Nottingham Airport, Tollerton, Nottinghamshire; the two person on board (pilot and one passenger) sustained no injuries. According to the following summary from the official AAIB report into the accident:
"Following an approach to Runway 09 the aircraft floated along the runway and the pilot decided to go around. He reported that, as the aircraft was climbing through approximately 200 feet agl, the engine stopped, re-started and stopped again. Power was restored once more, but only briefly, and the pilot decided to land in a field approximately 1.5 to 2 nautical miles north east of the runway.
The approach was uneventful but, as the aircraft slowed after touchdown, the nose landing gear leg collapsed. The two occupants were unhurt and vacated the aircraft through the normal exits. The cause of the engine failure was not determined."
Nature of Damage sustained to airframe: Per the AAIB report "Nose wheel collapsed, propeller, engine shock-loaded, engine mounts and cowlings damaged". All of the damage sustained to to the airframe was presumably enough to render the airframe as "beyond economic repair", as the registration G-BKZV was cancelled by the CAA on 20-08-2016 as "Permanently withdrawn from use"
