What happened
The FAA’s narrative, in sentence case. The FAA writes it in capitals and removes private details.
The student pilot advised that after dropping off her flight instructor at the tower she did one successful landing and full stop on runway 31. She taxied back to runway 31 and was cleared for takeoff, applied full throttle and began to roll when she noticed her door was not closed. She tried to get the door shut when she realized she was leaving the runway and going into the grass. She remembers crossing her arms on her chest to brace for impact and was then upside down in the aircraft at rest. Investigation of the scene revealed that the aircraft veered to the left after the initial throttle application leaving leaving the runway only a few feet past the 2-20 runway marker whilst running over a runway light. The aircraft traveled accros the grass approximately 372 feet until it struck a berm where it appears to have left the ground touching down on taxiway b, 167 feet later, it stayed on the ground traveling through the grass another 152 feet where it appeares the propeller hit the groun on another berm where the nose gear detached, the aircraft appears to have left the ground again this time coming down 60 feet further hitting nose first and rolling forward onto its back and coming to rest.
