Incident Details
A student pilot was conducting a solo flight after completing two takeoffs and landings with an instructor. The instructor deplaned, and the student prepared for departure. According to the student, the pre-takeoff checklist was completed, including setting the trim.
During the takeoff roll, as the aircraft accelerated, the control yoke moved aft with such force that the student reported he "could not force it forward." The nose began to rise abruptly. In response, the student decided to abort the takeoff but was unable to stop the aircraft on the remaining runway. The aircraft subsequently collided with a dirt bank.
Aircraft Examination
A post-accident examination of the aircraft found no evidence of a pre-accident mechanical malfunction or failure.
