A pilot walked away without any serious injuries after a very rough landing in Stanmore.

The light aircraft crash landed in a muddy field on Sunday (January 7).

The Harrow branch of Metropolitan Police Service announced the crash on Twitter and shared three photographs of the damaged aircraft at around 3.30pm.

The images show damage to the right wing of the blue and white aircraft and a nose propeller caked in mud.
