Narrative:Piper PA-15 Vagabond G-ASHU was substantially damaged in a forced landing when climbing away from a 'touch and go' landing at Popham Airfield, Coxford Down, Winchester, Hampshire.
The aircraft’s engine lost power after lift-off following a touch-and-go landing. The pilot lowered the nose to land ahead on the remaining runway, but the aircraft suffered a hard touchdown and ran off the side of the runway, and the landing gear collapsed.
Piper PA-15 Vagabond G-ASHU was built in 1946, and was first registered in the USA as N4164H. It became G-ASHU on 1.5.63, and has had 12 UK-registered owners since.
