The AAIB report is incorrect, the pilot clearly made a false report.
Its states;
'The pilot reports that he was making an approach to Weston-on-the-Green after a flight from Manston. The aircraft developed a rapid rate of sink in the final stages and this resulted in a heavy landing. The aircraft then veered abruptly to the right and the pilot executed a ‘go-around’.

He was not making an approach from Manston, he had been flying at Weston all weekend at the UKS Boogie. Probably made 30+ flights before the accident
His approach was after he performed a go around, due to parachutists in the air and on the runway he was landing on.
He was still in the turn from the go around when he lost height and landed very heavily on just the right undercarriage.
The plane does not veer to the right as he claims and literally bounces back into the air!
There is a video attached of him flying at the Boogie all weekend and then the heavy landing in the last 15 seconds of the video!


See what you think!
