Incident Overview
At West Point Municipal Airport in Virginia, a certified flight instructor (CFI) and a student pilot were conducting flight training maneuvers. After performing a low pass over the uncontrolled airport, the CFI directed the student to execute a touch-and-go landing on Runway 27. The maneuver was completed successfully, and the aircraft re-entered the traffic pattern for another landing.
Second Landing and Sequence of Events
During the subsequent landing attempt, the left main landing gear contacted a snow bank located on the approach end of the runway. This contact caused the aircraft to swerve off the left side of the runway. As the aircraft skidded across the surface, the right main landing gear collapsed, and the right wing subsequently made contact with the runway surface.
Damage
No details about the extent of damage to the aircraft or injuries to occupants were provided in the source material.
Aftermath
The aircraft came to rest off the runway. No further information regarding the outcome or any subsequent actions was reported.
