Analysis

After a dual instructional flt, practicing landings, the student tookoff on a solo flt. He made 2 takeoffs & landings without incident. On his 3rd takeoff, the acft began drifting to the left. The student said he applied right rudder to correct the situation, but he did not counter the drift. Therefore, he aborted the takeoff, however, the acft continued off the side of the rwy & hit a PA-28, N9955W.
