Pegasus Quik, G-KWIC

Summary:

The pilot took off for a local flight from Netherthorpe Airfield in good visibility but, when he returned, the airfield was obscured by fog. He elected to perform a forced landing in a field but misjudged the touchdown due to misting of his helmet visor and windscreen and landed heavily on the nosewheel.
