Oops, there's a hill in the way?
If you are thinking of S***y A*****n bouncing off the escarpment about 5 miles short of rwy 33 at night: I think that was the previous year and a 54 Sqn airframe. As I recall, the aircraft was not damaged, though the pilot's pride was; and two wheelmarks were found at the bounce site.
