Ex-OK-KFQ and built in 1956; first UK registered as G-APRR on 05-01-1959. The Aero 45 was taking off from Blackbushe on a flight to Goodwood, when it swung to the left. The pilot attempted to correct this, inducing an oscillation in yaw. Believing the airspeed to be sufficient for flight the pilot attempted to lift off, after which the aircraft stalled causing the right wing to strike the ground. The aircraft then came to rest in a gorse bush to the right of the runway. The three persons on board - the pilot and the two passengers, who were wearing lap strap harnesses - suffered minor injuries but were able to exit the aircraft normally
Nature of Damage sustained to airframe: Per the AAIB report "Extensive damage" sustained. The damage was presumably extensive enough to render the airframe as "beyond economic repair", as the registration G-APRR was cancelled by the CAA on 09-11-2012 as "Permanently withdrawn from use"
