THE STUDENT PILOT WAS ON THE FIRST SOLO FLIGHT WHEN THE ACFT WAS LANDED ON THE LEFT SIDE OF THE RWY BECAUSE OF THE CROSSWIND. WHEN THE LEFT WING DROPPED, THE STUDENT USED RIGHT RUDDER VS AILERON TO CORRECT, RESULTING IN A SWERVE TO THE RIGHT. THE LEFT WINGTIP WAS DRAGGED ON THE GROUND, THE LEFT MAIN GEAR FAILED AND THE ACFT DEPARTED THE RWY WHERE IT NOSED OVER.
Probable Cause: THE FAILURE OF THE STUDENT PILOT TO MAINTAIN DIRECTIONAL CONTROL OF THE AIRPLANE DURING LANDING AND THE IMPROPER USE OF FLIGHT CONTROLS. CONTRIBUTING TO THE ACCIDENT WERE THE CROSSWIND AND THE PILOT'S LACK OF TOTAL EXPERIENCE.
