Probable cause
The pilot's improper use of the flight controls resulting in loss of directional control and an inadvertent stall.
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 student pilot was on his second supervised solo. His first landing was ok, however on his second, he swerved to the left, and added power to go around. The airplane became airborne, drifting left, then stalled, into a corn field on the side of the runway.
