The Cessna 172N took off from the Guatemala City International Airport with 2 pilots on board, with the intention of carrying out an instruction flight of 1:30 minutes.
On arrival at the aerodrome of La Aguapa, they made several landings and takeoffs. The instructor then decided that it was time for the student-pilot to perform a solo flight. The takeoff and the flight pattern were performed without difficulty, everything within the corresponding parameters.
When making the final approach, the student pilot lost control of the aircraft causing several bounces on the runway and at the last bounce, the nose gear collapsed and the aircraft overturned.
The pilot was unharmed.
