Sequence of events
NTSB’s coding before 2008: each occurrence and phase of flight, and the causes and factors under it. The codes are defined in NTSB’s coding manual.
Analysis
The pilot stated that she was cleared for landing on runway 24. She stated that as she turned onto final, and the aircraft was high, an additional notch of flaps was added. The descent to the runway was at approximately 90 mph. The aircraft touched down in the center of the runway and bounced. In an attempt to correct the situation, with the ailerons, and rudder control, the right wing dipped. The pilot instinctively pushed the control yoke forward to land theaircraft and the aircraft collided with the ground, collapsing the nose gear.
