Narrative:Written off (damaged beyond repair) 19 June 1998 when crashed on landing and ran off the runway at Liverpool Airport, Speke, Liverpool. According to the following extract from the official AAIB report into the accident:
"The student pilot was on a cross country flight from Halfpenny Green to Liverpool. The runway in use at Liverpool was 09 with a surface wind of 170°/12 kt. On landing, the aircraft bounced and rolled to the left. The left wingtip contacted the ground and the aircraft departed the runway onto the grass where the nose landing gear collapsed.
The student's flying instructor considered that the cause of the accident was the student's failure to correct for the crosswind and allowing the into-wind wing to rise during the bounce. The student was operating within the aircraft's crosswind limit for landing".
The AAIB report notes the damage sustained to G-BTAR as "Substantial to nose landing gear, propeller and left wing". All of which were presumably enough to render the aircraft as "beyond economic repair", although the registration was not cancelled by the CAA until 9 April 2002, almost four years later.
