| Confidence Rating: |  Accident investigation report completed and information captured |
The pilot made two attempts to land and executed a go-around each time for what appeared to the local controller to be a too-fast approach. After another approach, the aircraft touched down and bounced a couple of times, then it veered off the runway and collided with a runway sign. The wind was calm, and the pilot reported no mechanical problems.
Probable Cause: the pilot's improper recovery from a bounced landing and failure to maintain directional control, while landing at night.
