Analysis
The student plt was practicing full flap landings during a solo flt. While on a final approach to land, she observed another acft taxiing on the end of the rwy. So she elected to go around. At that time, the acft was about 25 to 30 ft AGL. Reportedly, she applied full power, but retracted the flaps to the full up position. She stated that the acft veered left & she lost control, then the acft hit the ground, left wing first. After that, the propeller hit the ground & the nose gear failed.
