During the landing, the aircraft veered to the right and bounced before tipping over onto its right side. Although the pilot was wearing a lap strap, he was not wearing the shoulder strap provided. Consequently, he sustained serious facial injuries when his head made contact with the front strut.

The cause of the accident could not be determined and no faults were found with the aircraft during examination.
