Background
The accident involved a student pilot conducting his first solo cross-country flight. The flight consisted of multiple legs, and the pilot had completed a full stop landing to runway 10 before the incident occurred.
Sequence of Events
During the takeoff roll for the second leg on runway 10, the aircraft began fish-tailing. The pilot initially retarded the throttle to stop the aircraft, but believing he had regained directional control, he reapplied power to resume the takeoff. However, he lost directional control a second time. His subsequent attempt to abort the takeoff caused the aircraft to depart the runway off the left side into adjacent foliage, resulting in a nose over.
Witness Observations
Witnesses at the airport reported that the prevailing winds were down the runway from a westerly direction. No other weather observations were provided in the source.
Conclusion
The source does not provide a stated probable cause for the accident. The factual details are limited to the pilot's account and witness statements regarding wind direction.
