Event Overview
A student pilot, having completed two touch-and-go landings, intended for the third landing to be a full stop. After touchdown, the student perceived that the airplane was 'tipping' to the right. In an effort to correct this perceived tipping, the student applied left rudder. This action caused the airplane to veer off the left side of the runway and subsequently collide with an embankment.
Observer Account
An air traffic controller stationed at the field reported that the airplane touched down and then began to veer steadily to the left, maintaining an angle of approximately 30 to 45 degrees from the runway heading. The aircraft departed the runway surface at a point roughly 1,500 to 2,000 feet from the approach end of the runway.
Outcome
The incident resulted in the aircraft coming to rest after striking the embankment. No further details regarding damage or injuries were provided in the source.
