Analysis
While on a personal flt during the seventh touch & go landing, the acft bounced & drifted off the left side of the rwy. The plt added power & rolled the acft into a right bank to correct this but the right wing collided with terrain. The acft then nosed over & came to rest after touching down on the nose landing gear.
