| Confidence Rating: |  Accident investigation report completed and information captured |
The airplane was damaged when the nose landing gear collapsed during landing. The pilot reported that he was practicing takeoffs and landings when, on the fourth landing, "... [the pilot] must have flared [too] soon causing the airplane to bounce at touchdown." The airplane then went off the right side of the runway where, "the nosewheel dug into the terrain causing it to collapse and the airplane to go nose down."
Probable Cause: The pilot misjudging the flare, and his loss of directional control during landing. The soft terrain was a factor.
