Incident Details
A student pilot, who had logged 27 hours of flight time, was conducting training flights with a flight instructor. After completing approximately 12 full-stop landings, the flight instructor exited the airplane. The student pilot then taxied and departed for their first solo flight.
During the third touch-and-go landing of the solo flight, the pilot reported that the airplane "flared more than usual." The pilot added power, but the nose wheel struck the runway. Subsequently, the airplane bounced on the runway approximately four to six times before coming to a stop.
Sequence of Events
The solo flight began after the instructor disembarked. The student pilot successfully performed two touch-and-go landings before the incident on the third. No further details about the aircraft, location, or time of day were provided in the source.
Outcome
The airplane came to a stop after the series of bounces. The source did not specify any injuries or damage to the aircraft.
