On 16th June 1938 this 41 Squadron aeroplane took off from Catterick aerodrome so that the pilot could undertake a training exercise including making simulated gunnery attacks on another aeroplane. After making a normal landing at Catterick aerodrome a swing developed which saw the aeroplane tip onto the port wing tip and the nose. Minor damage resulted.
