What happened
The FAA’s narrative, in sentence case. The FAA writes it in capitals and removes private details.
On March 31, 2019 at 1015 am, a student pilot was practicing his solo landings at Clark Field Airport (sep). His first attempt on runway 32 was a hard bounced landing, so he pulled in power and began his take off. The pilot initiated the go around to take the aircraft around the pattern for another landing. The left wing tip contacted the ground prior to the main landing gear impacting the dirt just short of the taxi way. It appears the aircraft was immediately pulled level with a hard impact of the main landing gear striking the dirt just prior to the taxiway. Followed by another deep mark in the asphalt on the taxiway from the nose gear strut and several propeller strikes. The aircraft continued sliding across the taxiway on the nose gear strut bar with no prop strikes. The aircraft continued into the grass on the other side of the taxiway with a deep nose strut groove and right main landing gear rut that got larger and then just ended. The nose wheel was found 110? Feet from the wreckage. The aircraft came to rest upside down 180 degrees opposite the entry point on a barb wire fence with one of the fence stacks stuck through the aircraft tail.
