Narrative:
The pilot, the only occupant of the PH-ZVA, an AT-3, was training circuit flying at Lelystad Airport. Runway 23 was in use. The wind was blowing from 300 degrees at a speed of 8 knots. The first three touch-and-go landings were completed without reported incident. During the fourth landing, the aircraft bounced high, at which point the pilot lowered the nose of the aircraft in order to bring the aircraft back under control. When the aircraft came into contact with the runway for the second time, the nosewheel broke off. The aircraft then slid over the runway, until it came to a standstill.
The tips of the propeller blades had also broken off. The pilot was unharmed.
