What happened
The FAA’s narrative, in sentence case. The FAA writes it in capitals and removes private details.
This was the student pilots first supervised solo after some practice landings with his instructor just prior to the incident. The student had advised the control tower at Falcon airport in Mesa, AZ that this was the students first solo flight. After a successful first landing on runway 22R, although not instructed to by the control tower to execute or expect a turn at bravo, the pilot made the decision to turn at the bravo taxiway but was carrying excessive speed. After attempting to make a hard right turn from runway 22R onto taxiway bravo, the pilot was unable to hold the track and struck the runway marker sign located at the intersection of bravo and delta taxiways. As a result the propeller was destroyed resulting in a sudden stoppage of the engine. Other minor damage was caused to the cowling, nose gear and adjacent area of fiberglass. All damage was non structural in nature. The incident resulted in no injuries to the pilot or other ground personnel.
