The student pilot (SP) took off from runway 24 and carried out four “touch and go” landings as part of a “Consolidated Solo Circuit and Landing” exercise. On the fifth circuit, the SP notified Tower of the intention to make a “full stop” landing. On this approach the SP came in with excess speed, the aircraft ballooned and a go around was executed.
On the sixth circuit, the SP reported having problems managing power and flare manoeuvre. Thereafter, the Flight Instructor (FI) contacted the aircraft from the Tower and talked down the SP all the way to landing.
The SP reported that during landing, the aircraft was flared before closing the power and it ballooned. The SP lost control of the aircraft, and it veered off to the right of the runway and stopped in a drainage that runs parallel to the Runway.
Causal Factor
The decision to release the SP for the flight with observed uncorrected limitations.
Contributory Factors
i. The SP’s inability to maintain appropriate final approach airspeed.
ii. The loss of directional control of the aircraft after power was added on touchdown.
