Incident Overview
A student pilot, operating an airplane on a solo instructional flight, experienced a landing incident that resulted in the aircraft veering off the runway and nosing over in an adjacent grass area. The event occurred after the student attempted to land on runway 27R.
Preceding Events
Prior to the solo flight, the student pilot and his certified flight instructor had conducted several landings on runway 27L. The student then departed for the solo flight from runway 27R. On the first landing attempt on the same runway, the student executed a go-around. According to the student, this decision was based on his inability to keep the airplane aligned with the centerline and the presence of a slight crosswind.
The Incident Landing
Following the go-around, the student pilot made a second approach to runway 27R. During the landing flare, he stated that he applied left aileron control into the wind and observed that the airplane's nose was yawed to the left. The aircraft touched down in a crabbed attitude, departed the runway surface, and subsequently nosed over in the adjacent grass.
