Substantially damaged 29 September 2004 when crashed at Old Buckenham Airfield, Abbey Road, Old Buckenham, Norfolk. According to the following extract from the official AAIB report into the accident:
"After a local area flight the pilot returned to the airfield to carry out a series of touch and go landings on grass Runway 25. The weather conditions were fair with a surface wind of 220 degrees/10 knots. The first approach was flown at 80 mph with full flap, and the pilot was content with the speed and angle of approach. He flared the aircraft slightly late however, and it touched down on three points. He attempted to control the subsequent bounce, but on the second touchdown the aircraft bounced again.
The pilot commented that he was over-controlling the aircraft by this stage and was established in a series of pilot induced oscillations. A third, more severe, bounce followed resulting in the aircraft touching down hard in a nose-down attitude. This damaged the nose landing gear and the firewall and caused the propeller to strike the ground. The aircraft eventually came to rest and the pilot, who was uninjured, was able to vacate it without difficulty".
Despite the damage sustained - noted by the AAIB as "Nose landing gear leg bent, engine shock loaded, engine mounting and engine bay bulkhead damaged" - G-NINC was later repaired and sold on to new owners (The Flintshire Flying School) on 26 April 2012
