Incident Summary
The accident involved a student pilot conducting a touch-and-go landing procedure on a grass runway. During the landing, the airplane bounced six feet into the air. A go-around was initiated. The airplane then entered a collision course with obstacles near the airport. The pilot executed a left turn, during which the aircraft stalled and impacted the ground.
Sequence of Events
The student pilot performed a touch-and-go landing on a grass runway. As the airplane touched down, it bounced approximately six feet in the air. The pilot initiated a go-around procedure. Following the bounce and go-around, the airplane was on a trajectory that would have brought it into conflict with airport obstacles. To avoid those obstacles, the pilot made a left turn. During this turn, the aircraft stalled and subsequently hit the ground.
Pilot's Statement
The student pilot attributed the initial landing bounce to the airplane crossing a drainage ditch that traversed the runway. The pilot stated that the bounce resulted directly from encountering that ditch during the landing roll.
