Narrative:
A light aircraft force landed in Little Snoring, near Fakenham, Norfolk on 13 June 2025. The aircraft ran off the runway on landing and overturned into a ditch. Both occupants suffered minor injuries.

UPDATE:
The incident was the subject of an AAIB Record only investigation, published on 14 August 2025, and the following is the summary from the AAIB Report into the incident:

"13 Jun 2025: Dyn Aero MCR-01, G-PGAC
Little Snoring Aerodrome
The aircraft suffered a brake failure which resulted in the aircraft not being able to slow and stop before the end of the runway. The aircraft ran off the end of the runway and into a ditch, between the runway and adjacent field, which caused the aircraft to pitch forward and become inverted".

Damage Sustained to airframe
Although the AAIB Report does not state the extent of the damage sustained, the CAA registration file notes that the registration was cancelled on 15 August 2025 (and the airframe de-registered) as "Permanently withdrawn from use". There is a report that the airframe was being broken up for parts in August 2025 by Skycraft of Holbeach, Lincolnshire (see link #6)
