Cessna F150J, G-AWRK

Summary:

The pilot, who was inexperienced in short field operations, was making his first landing at Deanland. He landed long and to the left of the runway centreline, and only became aware that there was a slight tailwind when he saw the wind sock just before touchdown. The aircraft bounced and veered to the left, before striking a building and coming to a stop. The pilot was uninjured.
