Accident Number: GAA19CA104
Date & Time: 01/06/2019, 1320 EST
Registration: N282BG
Aircraft: Piper PA28
Aircraft Damage: Substantial
Defining Event: Loss of control on ground
Injuries: 1 None
Flight Conducted Under: Part 91: General Aviation - Instructional

The solo student pilot reported that, while on short final, the airplane was high, so she reduced the power to idle to lose altitude. As she pulled back on the control yoke for the landing flare, the main landing wheels touched down first and the airplane suddenly veered to the left. She corrected with right rudder control, followed by applying the toe brakes, but the airplane continued to the left, exited the runway onto the grass and impacted a ditch.

The airplane sustained substantial damage to the right-wing aft spar.

The student pilot reported no preaccident mechanical failures or malfunctions with the airplane that would have precluded normal operation.
