Analysis
The student plt's apch to land was high & he extended 20 deg of flaps & retarded the power to idle. Realizing he was about to land too long, he initiated a go-around. He applied power & retracted the flaps to full up. The student stated that the acft began settling too fast & he panicked, reduced the power to idle & attempted to force the acft onto the rwy. This resulted in a heavy impact & the nose gear collapsed.
