Read the full NTSB narrative

THE GLIDER PLT WAS IN TRAINING FOR A SINGLE ENG LAND RATING & WAS INDORSED FOR SOLO FLT. DURING HER TRAINING, SHE & HER INSTRUCTOR PLT HAD LANDED AT THE BIG LAKE ARPT. SHE THOUGHT THAT THAT WAS HER APPROVAL TO LAND THERE SOLO. HOWEVER, THERE WERE SANDY SOFT SPOTS ON THE GRAVEL RWY & THE OPERATOR STATED THAT THE STUDENT WAS NOT CLEARED FOR SOLO LANDINGS AT THAT ARPT. DURING THE LANDING, THE STUDENT LOST DIRECTIONAL CONTROL OF THE ACFT & IT VEERED OFF THE RWY. SUBSEQUENTLY, THE NOSE GEAR COLLAPSED & THE LEFT WING HIT THE GROUND.
