Narrative:THE PILOT WAS ON HIS THIRD SUPERVISED SOLO FLIGHT. ACCORDING TO THE PILOT, HE WAS TRYING TO LAND WHEN THE AIRPLANE BOUNCED TWICE ON THE RUNWAY. THE AIRPLANE VEERED OFF THE RIGHT SIDE OF THE RUNWAY DESPITE THE PILOT'S ATTEMPT TO REGAIN DIRECTIONAL CONTROL BY APPLYING RIGHT RUDDER. THE AIRPLANE COLLIDED WITH A SNOWBANK. THE PILOT STATED: 'THERE WAS A GUST OF WIND AT TOUCH DOWN, WHICH CAUSED THE PLANE TO LEAVE THE GROUND AFTER INITIAL TOUCH DOWN AND UPON THE SECOND TOUCH DOWN, I WAS NOT ALIGNED WITH THE CENTERLINE. I NOW KNOW I SHOULD HAVE JAMMED THE RIGHT RUDDER AND NOT ACCEPTED RUNNING INTO THE SNOWBANK. I HAVE NO DOUBT, I COULD HAVE PREVENTED THE ACCIDENT.'
