Pegasus Quik, G-TCNY

Summary:

Whilst landing on a dry grass runway the pilot lost control as the nosewheel was lowered to the surface. The microlight tumbled, causing minor injuries to both occupants. Based upon a subsequent inspection of the aircraft, the pilot thought that the nosewheel tyre may have been under-inflated prior to landing.
