## Narrative

As the FAA filed it, in capitals; the FAA replaces private details with ^PRIVACY DATA OMITTED^.

ON NOV 16, 2204, AT APPROXIMATELY 2:55PM EST, A STUDENT PILOT WAS CONDUCTING THEIR FIRST SOLO FLIGHT. THE STUDENT PILOT WAS ON SPEED AND GLIDEPATH FOR RUNWAY 21 AT EAGLE CREEK AIRPARK(KEYE), INDIANAPOLIS, IN. UPON INITIAL AICRAFT TOUCH DOWN, THE AIRCRAFT PROCEEDED TO BOUNCE MULTIPLE TIMES AND THE STUDENT PILOT LOST DIRECTIONAL CONTROL. THE AIRCRAFT THEN EXITED ON THE LEFT SIDE OF THE RUNWAY CAUSING THE NOSE LANDING GEAR TO COLASPE. THE LEFT WING AND PROPELLER IMPACTED THE GROUND. AIRCRAFT DAMAGE WAS NOT SUBSTANTIAL AND NO INJURIES WERE SUSTAINED.

From the FAA Accident/Incident Data System. Reports are matched to registry aircraft by N-number and event date, checked against the reported make and model; the registry's history has gaps, so older matches can be wrong. Compare the reported make and model. For accidents, the NTSB's own investigation is the fuller record.
