Written off (damaged beyond repair) when damaged by gales whilst parked at Sleap, Shropshire on 12/2/1961.
Registration G-AHXG cancelled by the CAA on 1/4/1962 as "PWFU" ("Permanently Withdrawn From Use") This was presumably done retrospectively, as the CAA records state that they were not "notified 6/4/1965"
Parts of G-AHUM and G-AHXG were used in the rebuild of Taylorcraft Plus D G-ARRR
