THE SOLO STUDENT PILOT WAS PRACTICING TOUCH AND GO LANDINGS WITH A RIGHT CROSSWIND WHEN THE ACCIDENT OCCURRED. AS THE PILOT INCREASED POWER FOR TAKEOFF, DIRECTIONAL CONTROL WAS LOST AND THE AIRPLANE DEPARTED THE RUNWAY. THE NOSEWHEEL STRUCK A DIRT BANK, COLLAPSED, AND THE AIRPLANE CAME TO REST INVERTED.
Probable Cause: the pilot's loss of directional control during touch and go landings. Factors were the crosswind and the pilot's lack of total experience.
