Narrative:
Rearwin 8125 Cloudster G-EVLE: Substantially damaged 28 July 2022 in a landing accident at RAF Marham, Upper Marham, King's Lynn, Norfolk

The incident was the subject of an AAIB Correspondence-only Investigation, and the following is the summary from the AAIB Accident Report:

"On touchdown in a moderate crosswind the pilot was unable to control a significant right yaw with full left rudder. When he also applied left brake the aircraft pitched over onto its back. The pilot found it challenging to apply the heel-operated disc brakes with full rudder. During recovery the brake was found seized and had probably caused the accident".

G-EVLE was first UK registered on 6 April 1994 as G-BVLK; re-registered 10 April 2003 as G-EVLE
