G-MRRR is still owned by the same family company. Was flown by member of the family, the PF didnt put enough left pedal coming into land. Ac snapped to right ( 500's will do so quite violently if you pull the power in quickly when out of wind, or better way of putting it he didnt lead with the pedal ). Ac spun round 4 times, PF rolled throttle off, ac landed heavily the skid gear collapsed on one side causing ac to rollercoaster on to right side
