Skyranger Swift 912S(1), G-CGKZ

Summary:

The aircraft made a normal approach to the runway but as the pilot flared for touchdown, he experienced a strong gust of wind from the right. The right wing lifted and the nosewheel and left mainwheel struck the ground heavily. The nose landing gear collapsed and, after a short distance, the aircraft nosed over onto its back. Both occupants were able to exit the aircraft without difficulty.
