Accident Sequence
The accident occurred following a student pilot's bounced landing on runway 30 during an attempted go-around. According to the certified flight instructor (CFI), the student applied full engine power, retracted the wing flaps to the 10-degree setting, and turned the carburetor heat off. Subsequently, directional control of the airplane was lost.
The CFI reported that the airplane yawed violently to the left, at which point he took control of the flight controls while the airplane was still in ground effect. The CFI decided to continue the go-around procedure but was not able to salvage the maneuver. The airplane continued a slow descent to the ground.
Post-Impact
The airplane touched down on the ground adjacent to the runway. Thereafter, directional control was lost, and the left wing impacted the ground, resulting in substantial damage.
Pilot Information
The CFI had been a flight instructor for about six months prior to the accident. At the time of the occurrence, the wind speed was 3 knots.
