| Comments | struck off charge 11.03.86 after accident, the aircraft was being flown by a recently qualified pilot and overran the end of the runway, it was the beach end of the rwy and the soft sandy soil caused the nose leg to quickly sink until the retraction jack folded in the middle and punched it's way through the roof of the nose gear bay and the floor of the fwd cockpit, the damage was such that it was uneconomical to repair, aircraft officially struck off charge as Cat.5(G/I) on 11.03.86, to ground instructional use as RAF Leuchars as 8913M, finally scrapped in April 1992 | |||||||||||||||
