THE PLT WAS PRACTICING NIGHT TAKEOFFS AND LANDINGS. HE STATED THAT HE HAD SUCCESSFULLY ACCOMPLISHED TWO FULL STOP LANDINGS. AFTER THE THIRD LANDING, HE APPLIED FULL POWER TO EXECUTE A GO-AROUND. THE PILOT SAID THE AIRPLANE PULLED TO THE LEFT SO HE REDUCED THE POWER AND THE AIRPLANE ROLLED INTO A DITCH OFF THE SIDE OF THE RUNWAY.
