THE STUDENT PILOT, RETURNING FROM A CROSS-COUNTRY FLIGHT, FLOATED LONG WHILE LANDING AND ADDED POWER TO ATTEMPT A GO-AROUND. UPON ADDITION OF POWER THE AIRPLANE VEERED TO THE LEFT, LANDED IN THE GRASS AND ROLLED TO A STOP INTO THE TREES.
Probable Cause: THE PILOT-IN-COMMAND'S IMPROPER COMPENSATION FOR WIND CONDITIONS AND LACK OF RUDDER INPUT DURING AN ATTEMPTED GO-AROUND THAT RESULTED IN LOSS OF CONTROL IN FLIGHT AND COLLISION WITH TERRAIN. RUDDER INPUT WAS NEEDED TO COMPENSATE FOR THE P-FACTOR GENERATED BY THE INCREASE IN POWER ON THE GO-AROUND.
