The initial touchdown was in a flat attitude and the aircraft bounced. The second touchdown was on the nose wheel and the propeller struck the ground. After the aircraft bounced again the pilot carried out a go-around, during which he noticed about 75 millimetres free travel in the elevators. A safe landing was made and an inspection revealed damage to the firewall, which had moved the elevator control cable pulleys rearwards and allowed the cables to slacken.
