Accident Details
A solo student pilot reported that during landing, as the nosewheel contacted the runway, a strong vibration was felt and the airplane veered to the left. The pilot attempted to correct by pulling back on the yoke, but the airplane became airborne and continued its left turn. It subsequently impacted an adjacent ramp area to the left of the runway.
Video Evidence
Examination of video surveillance footage showed the airplane landed and shortly thereafter veered left. It then became airborne, entered an aerodynamic stall, and the left wing dropped, resulting in impact with the ramp.
Aircraft Damage
The airplane sustained substantial damage to the left wing.
Mechanical Status
The manager reported that there were no preaccident mechanical failures or malfunctions that would have prevented normal operation.
Weather Conditions
The automated weather observation station at the airport reported that about 36 minutes before the accident, the wind was variable at 3 knots. Approximately 24 minutes after the accident, the wind was variable at 5 knots. The pilot was landing on runway 25.
