Incident Overview
A student pilot was practicing takeoffs and landings when a crosswind condition existed. The wind was from the left at a 30-degree angle, with a velocity of 5 to 10 knots.
Sequence of Events
While the student pilot was establishing a landing touchdown attitude, the airplane began to yaw to the left and simultaneously balloon. In response, the pilot added power and applied left aileron and left rudder. The airplane subsequently touched down on the left side of the runway and departed the left edge of the runway.
Consequences
During the excursion, the airplane struck the edges of another taxiway and runway, as well as taxiway and runway lights. The extent of damage to the aircraft or infrastructure was not specified in the source.
Pilot Actions
The student pilot reported applying power and left aileron/rudder inputs at the same time in reaction to the yaw and ballooning. The source does not elaborate on the effectiveness or appropriateness of these control inputs.
Environmental Conditions
The reported wind was a left crosswind component of 5 to 10 knots, with a 30-degree angle relative to the runway. The source does not specify the time of day, visibility, or other weather factors.
Additional Details
The source did not provide information on the aircraft type, registration, date, operator, location, number of occupants, or any injuries.
