Aircraft involved
Probable cause & findings
The student pilot's failure to maintain directional control while attempting to turn the airplane onto a taxiway after landing.
Factual narrative
According to the solo student pilot, he was practicing touch-and-go takeoffs and landings. On the third approach as the pilot turned on final, the tower controller asked him to complete a full stop landing due to an increased number of aircraft in the airport area. The landing and roll out were normal, but when the pilot attempted to turn off of the runway onto a taxiway, the airplane was traveling too fast. He applied the brakes, yet the airplane proceeded off the side of the taxiway and impacted a pole, resulting in substantial damage to the left wing and fuselage. During an examination of the wreckage, a Federal Aviation Administration inspector found no anomalies with the airplane that may have contributed to the accident. According to the student pilot, he was on a solo flight practicing touch-and-go takeoffs and landings. On the third approach, as he turned the airplane onto the final leg of the traffic pattern, the tower air traffic controller requested that the pilot complete a full stop landing due to an increased number of aircraft in the airport area. The touchdown and roll out were normal. The pilot subsequently attempted to turn off of the runway onto a taxiway with the airplane traveling too fast. He applied the brakes, yet the airplane proceeded off the side of the taxiway and impacted a pole, resulting in substantial damage to the left wing and fuselage. During a postaccident examination of the wreckage, a Federal Aviation Administration inspector found no anomalies with the airplane that may have contributed to the accident.
