AAIB investigation to Cyclone AX2000, G-CBGS
Runway excursion, Longside Airfield, Peterhead, Aberdeenshire, 9 October 2016.
Summary:
皇冠体育app student pilot was carrying out his first solo flight. 皇冠体育app weather conditions were suitable, with a calm wind and good visibility. 皇冠体育app circuit and approach were uneventful but, during the landing, the aircraft yawed to the left just before touchdown and the pilot did not correct quickly enough. 皇冠体育app main wheels contacted the surface but, with the aircraft now running towards the edge of the runway, he decided to go-around. 皇冠体育app aircraft started to lift off but the wheels caught the longer grass next to the runway and it tipped over, coming to rest inverted. 皇冠体育app pilot, who was wearing a four-point harness, was able to exit through his side door without external assistance. He was uninjured but the aircraft was substantially damaged.
