Incident Overview
A student pilot on their first supervised solo flight experienced a loss of directional control after landing, leading to a runway excursion and nose-over. The incident occurred during the second approach to landing.
Sequence of Events
According to the investigation, the student pilot's first takeoff and landing were satisfactory. On the second approach, the pilot noted a slight left quartering headwind and made a correction. As the airplane touched down, the pilot's right high-top laced boot became jammed between the rudder pedal and the floor carpeting. While attempting to extricate the foot, the pilot lost directional control. The airplane departed the side of the runway and subsequently nosed over.
