CESSNA 152
THE ACFT WAS OBSERVED TO BE FLYING STRAIGHT AND LEVEL WHEN THE SOUNDS OF THE ENG WERE HEARD TO INCREASE. THE ONLY WITNESS SAW THE ACFT NOSE OVER AND DIVE INTO THE GROUND. RADAR TRACKING OF THE ACFT FLT PATH CONFIRMS THIS. INVESTIGATION REVEALED THAT THE THIS WAS THE STUDENT-PLTS FIRST FLT AND THAT HE WAS UNDER A GREAT DEAL OF PRESSURE. EXAM OF THE ACFT AND ENG DID NOT DISCLOSE ANY EVIDENCE OF PREIMPACT FAILURE OR MALFUNCTION.
