Is the image saved in your flash shows same name as the one in your "show boot" command?
It seems that the boot process does not find the neede image name when it looks for it.
What you need to do is to install the recovery image again on the AP and that should fix the issue.
Use TFTP server and connect it to the AP while AP and PC on same subnet:
AP>en
AP#debug lwapp console cli OR debug capwap console cli (one of the commands works depending on your version. I think the second one will work with you in your case).
AP#config t
AP(confg)int fa 0
AP(confg-if)ip addr (same subnet as that of the laptop)
AP(confg-if)end
AP#archive download-sw /force-reload /overwrite tftp:///
After the archiving done the AP reboots (do that manually if it does not) and you should be in a good AP now.
connect your AP to the network and make it join the WLC.
