Date & Time: 12/18/2019, 1130 MST
Registration: N1107C
Aircraft: Piper PA22
Aircraft Damage: Substantial
Defining Event: Loss of control on ground
Injuries: 1 None
Flight Conducted Under: Part 91: General Aviation - Personal
The student pilot of the tailwheel-equipped airplane reported that, during landing on runway 12, the airplane bounced and entered a nose high attitude. The student pilot aborted the landing, applied full engine power and pushed the nose down while leveling the wings, before he applied left rudder to crab the airplane into the wind. The airplane touched down a second time with the longitudinal axis of the airplane not aligned with the runway. The airplane veered left and exited the left side of the runway. The right main landing gear collapsed, and the airplane came to rest upright in the soft dirt terrain.
The airplane sustained substantial damage to the right wing and fuselage.
The student pilot reported that there were no preaccident mechanical failures or malfunctions with the airplane that would have precluded normal operation.
The airport's automated weather observation station reported that, about the time of the accident, the wind was from 80° at 8 knots.
