Written off (damaged beyond repair) when Burnt in hangar fire whilst parked at Midden Zeeland, Netrherlands on 29.10.1980. The fire destroyed five aircraft and two cars:
"29-30/10/1980
PH-301 Schleicher K 8B c/n 8079

At midnight there was a fire in the hangar of the Vliegclub Midden Zeeland. The fire was almost certainly because of a charger not working properly, and a battery that was charged for four days, overheated and caught fire. The hangar burned down completely and along with the five above-mentioned aircraft, a Citroën 2CV and Fiat 127 also went up in flames.
