Narrative:The airplane landed hard as the student pilot was practicing a soft field landing. The student said he flared too high and reduced the power to idle at the same time, which resulted in a hard landing. The student had been practicing short and soft field takeoffs and landings with his instructor. The instructor believed the student pilot was ready to practice on his own. The accident flight was the student's fourth solo flight, and was an unsupervised solo.
Probable Cause: the student pilot's misjudged landing flare, which resulted in a hard landing.
