What happened
The incident occurred during a routine training flight involving a student pilot executing a standard landing approach. The weather conditions included a crosswind component originating from the left side of the runway. As the aircraft approached the touchdown zone, it began to drift laterally toward the right side of the paved surface.
Upon initial contact with the ground, the aircraft was already positioned partially off the runway pavement on the right side. Recognizing the deviation, the pilot applied braking pressure and attempted to maintain a ground track parallel to the runway centerline to correct the trajectory. Despite these corrective inputs, the aircraft continued to skid toward the right.
The situation escalated when the nosewheel descended into a drainage ditch located adjacent to the runway edge. The impact with the ditch caused the aircraft to pitch forward violently, resulting in a nose-over attitude. The force of the impact brought the flight to an abrupt halt.
