What happened
The FAA’s narrative, in sentence case. The FAA writes it in capitals and removes private details.
(-23) On July 16, 2001, approximately 1130 mountain daylight time, a diamond DA-20-C-1, N981CT was substantially damaged when it collided with terrain during landing at Provo, UT. Airport. The only occupant of the aircraft was a student pilot who was not injured. Visual meteorological conditions prevailed. The student was returning from a cross-country flight and was attempting a landing on runway 13. The wind was from 140 degrees at 10 knots, with gusts up to 15 knots. When the airplane touched down, it bounced and the pilot applied full power to abort landing and make another go around when the student lost control. Witnesses said the airplane assumed an extreme high nose pitch attitude, stalled and impacted the ground 100 feet from right side of runway 13.
