THE STUDENT PILOT WAS ON HIS SECOND SUPERVISED SOLO FLIGHT. AFTER A 30 MINUTE LOCAL FLIGHT, HE RETURNED TO THE AIRPORT TO PRACTICE FULL-FLAP, TOUCH AND GO LANDINGS ON RUNWAY 9. THE WIND WAS FROM 100 DEGREES AT 11 KNOTS. DURING HIS FIRST LANDING, THE STUDENT TOUCHED DOWN HARD AT 70 KNOTS AND BOUNCED. HE ADDED POWER, BUT BOUNCED AGAIN. ON THE THIRD TOUCHDOWN, THE NOSEWHEEL COLLAPSED.
These match the airframe or engine model. Whether each one applies, and whether it's been complied with, depends on serial numbers, equipment and logbook entries. Applicability must be confirmed by a mechanic against the aircraft's records.
