Factual narrative

THE PILOT-IN-COMMAND HAD JUST PURCHASED THE AIRCRAFT AND WAS IN THE PORCESS OF IMPROVING HER SKILLS. THE OTHER OCCUPANT WAS AN INSTRUCTOR PILOT. WHILE LANDING ON RUNWAY 01 WITH A WIND FROM 310 DEGREES AT 14 KNOTS, THE AIRCRAFT BOUNCED AND VEERED TO THE RIGHT. THE PILOT-IN-COMMAND STATED THAT SHE CAUGHT HER FOOT IN FRONT OF THE BRAKE LEVER. REPORTEDLY, THIS HELD THE RUDDER PEDAL DEPRESSED AND THE INSTRUCTOR'S CONTROL INPUT FAILED TO OVERCOME THE RIGHT TURNING MOTION.
