Narrative:
Upon landing, the airplane bounced once on the runway. The airplane lifted off 2 or 3 meters from the ground. The pilot in command then pushed the stick forward, and the airplane pitched forward and hit the ground nose down.

Cause
The probable cause of the accident is a slightly too high landing speed and a high rolling speed combined with the reaction of the pilot to push the yoke down as a reflex to the bouncing of the airplane, caused by unevenness of the runway surface.

The wreckage was recovered, stripped out, and rebuilt to be used as a grounded flight simulator (see link #1)
