ACFT X TAXIED ON TO RWY AND BEGAN HIS TKOF ROLL AS ACFT Y WAS ABOUT TO LAND.

Narrative

I FLEW TO FRENCH VALLEY ARPT (F70) WITH MY STUDENT TO SOLO HIM. UPON ARRIVAL I HAD HIM DO THREE (3) TURNS IN THE PATTERN WITH WERE UNEVENTFUL. UPON COMPLETION OF THE PATTERNS I HAD MY STUDENT DROP ME OFF IN THE TRANSIENT RAMP AREA. THERE I REVIEWED HIS DOCUMENTS ONE LAST TIME AND THEN SENT HIM ON HIS WAY FOR HIS THIRD SOLO FLT AS THIS ARPT. AFTER WALKING AWAY FROM THE PLANE I SAT DOWN BY A LIGHT POST AND TURNED ON MY TRANSCEIVER TO LISTEN TO THE RADIO CALLS. A FEW MINUTES LATER I HEARD A HELICOPTER CALL OUT FINAL FOR THE ACTIVE RWY. A FEW SECONDS LATER I HEARD SAME HELICOPTER CALL ASKING IF THE CESSNA TAKING THE RWY SAW HIM ON FINAL. THERE WAS NO ANSWER. ABOUT 2 SECONDS LATER I HEARD MY STUDENT ON THE RADIO SAYING HE WAS TAKING OFF ON THE ACTIVE RWY. THAT IS WHEN I FIRST REALIZED THAT MY STUDENT WAS INVOLVED IN A RWY INCURSION. BEFORE I WAS ABLE TO MAKE A RADIO CALL TO MY STUDENT HE HAD ALREADY TAKEN OFF AND THE HELICOPTER WAS MAKING WHAT LOOKED LIKE A NORMAL LANDING IN THE RAMP AREA. I LET MY STUDENT COMPLETE THE TFC PATTERN AND THEN TOLD HIM TO COME PICK ME UP; BECAUSE I HAD TO TALK TO HIM. ONCE ON THE GND I BRIEFED THE STUDENT ON WHAT HAD HAPPENED AND ASKED WHY HE TOOK OFF WHEN THERE WAS A HELICOPTER ON FINAL. HE SAID THAT SINCE THE HELICOPTER NEVER HAD USED THE RWYS BEFORE HE DID NOT THINK THIS ONE WOULD EITHER SO HE IGNORED HIM. I THEN DEBRIEFED HIM ON THE IMPORTANCE OF COLLISION AVOIDANCE ESPECIALLY AT AN UNCONTROLLED ARPT. WE THEN FLEW BACK TO SANTA ANA ARPT (SNA) WITH NO FURTHER MISHAPS WHERE I ONCE AGAIN DEBRIEFED HIM ON THE SIT. CALLBACK CONVERSATION WITH THE RPTR REVEALED THE FOLLOWING INFO: THE RPTR STATED THAT HIS TRAINEE WAS HAVING DIFFICULTY WITH THE ENGLISH LANGUAGE; HE WITHDREW FROM THE PROGRAM.
