Circumstances Leading to the Landing
The pilot decided to perform a precautionary landing on a field after encountering low fuel conditions. Additionally, the ceiling and visibility were decreasing, darkness was setting in, and the pilot was uncertain of the exact position. These factors prompted the decision to land away from an aerodrome.
Landing and Sequence of Events
The landing was conducted on an uphill sloping field with a slight tail wind. Upon touchdown, the aircraft struck a swale (a shallow depression in the terrain), causing it to become briefly airborne again. When it contacted the ground a second time, it collided with a fence. The aircraft continued through that fence, rolled across the field, and struck another fence. It then traversed a ditch, which resulted in the collapse of both main landing gear. Subsequently, the aircraft rolled over and came to rest inverted.
Post-Event Status
The aircraft ended up inverted after the series of impacts. No information is provided regarding injuries, damage to components beyond the collapsed gear, or the specific model of the aircraft involved.
