Read the full NTSB narrative

The pilot performed three takeoffs and landings with his flight instructor and was then signed off for his first solo flight, and instructed to perform three solo touch and go landings. The first landing was normal and as the pilot applied full engine power to takeoff again the aircraft began to veer to the left. The aircraft went off the runway, collided with taxiway lights and a taxiway sign, collapsed the nose gear, and came to rest nose down.
