Read the full NTSB narrative

The student pilot was practicing landings solo when the accident occurred. According to a statement by the student pilot, 'When I flared the airplane floated and I relaxed the yoke to level it back with the runway then suddenly plane hit the ground hard and bounced back in the air. That totally got me by surprise. After that plane bounced 2-3 more times and settled back on the runway. After that I heard rattling sounds as plane rolled on the runway.'

Quoted verbatim from the NTSB record.
