Read the full NTSB narrative
A Cessna 150K and 150M were in the traffic pattern, while a third airplane was conducting an instrument approach to the airport. The student pilot of the 150M stated that as she was on the downwind leg, she observed an airplane in front of her. As she turned onto the base leg, she extended the leg to space her airplane from the airplane in front of her. The student pilot then observed the airplane land, and continued the approach. Upon touching down on the runway, the student pilot's airplane struck the tail of the 150K that was on the runway. The student pilot recalled that she had announced all of her positions during the traffic pattern on the Common Traffic Advisory Frequency; however, mistook the airplane which was conducting the instrument approach as the landing airplane.
