A student pilot on their first solo flight reported a normal approach to landing, but the airplane was slightly high. Recognizing insufficient runway remaining for a normal landing, the student pilot decided to perform a go-around.
Witness Observation
A witness observed that the airplane was in an excessively nose-high attitude as the student added full power. The airplane began to climb and drift to the left while the student corrected the airplane's attitude.
Sequence of Events
As the go-around maneuver continued, the left main landing gear tire and wing contacted a tree beside the runway. Subsequently, the airplane impacted the ground.
Outcome
The accident resulted in damage to the airplane. The source does not specify injuries or fatalities. The student pilot was on their first solo flight at the time of the incident.
