Glad to see the pilot got out OK. I'll speculate (seeing as it's a rumour site) that the aircraft is one of the Tomahawks owned by Highland Aviation.

Why is it always the nice new airframes that get bent, but the shaggiest nastiest aircraft in the fleet never gets totaled ?

Dornoch has developed small ridges, which can cause bounce, over the last year.

I'm upset to hear about the aircraft. Relieved to hear the pilot was OK.
