The aircraft was on final approach and suffered partial EF believed to be carb icing and the aircraft impacted rising ground on the RWY approach causing serious damage.

A pilot requested inbound clearance and was instructed to maintain A015 and join right down wind RWY36. Approaching the downwind join, the aircraft was observed on the tower display to be at A011, the pilot was challenged and they confirmed they were at A010. The occurrence has been investigated with the CFI and a review of CTR operational competencies is underway for this pilot and future approvals when operating at this Class D aerodrome.

During a glide in approach to RWY 07 at Coonalpyn, approx. 5ft above the RWY the left wing dropped and the wing tip touch ground causing the aircraft to veer to the left into trees and a fence.

On landing the aircraft skidded, nose wheel wobbled, and the RH wing tip went into grass on the side of the RWY. The pilot then taxied the aircraft to the parking area and shut down the aircraft.

During the downwind leg in the circuit pattern there was a 3-mile final call given by the regular RPT on a straight in approach. The pilot of the Sportstar returned the call giving their intentions of continuing on an extended downwind which takes it slightly to the north of their approach path. This led the RPT to conduct a go around. ( TCAS confliction). A review of CTAF procedures and communications at certified aerodromes was undertaken with the pilot and CFI of the Flight Training School.Pilots are reminded when establishing 2 way communications with RPT traffic in the vicinity of aerodromes that they are clear in their communications responses and actions to ensure separation requirements are effectively managed.

Standard Pre solo training flight. After four CCTS with 2 x EFATO, 1 x Glide approach and 1 x Flap-less approach all to S/A on the last CCT due to the fuel imbalance of 40lts on the left and 30 on the right the instructor changed the left tank to off to balance the fuel out. After clearing the RWY they relocated the aircraft for the students first solo CCT on RWY 05. The student took-off and conduct the CCT normally and on short final (15-20 feet in the air) the engine stopped. The student landed the aircraft without incident and came to a stop, then called on the radio they had an engine failure and an AAPA aircraft behind conducted a go around. The instructor approached the aircraft on the RWY, quickly inspected the aircraft and talked the student about re-starting the engine. After three tries the engine came to life. After speaking with the student they had worked out that the student had turned the right fuel tap off during his downwind checks, hence the engine stopping on short finals.

The aircraft was landing against a strong and gusty headwind on RWY07. All seemed to be ok, then the aircraft landed heavily and bounced. The pilot applied power but landed again resulting in the propeller hitting ground and shearing off and the nose wheel collapsing. It seems that the wind strength ceased at a critical time.

The student, during a first solo check flight struggled to prioritise flying the aircraft and didn’t slow down behind a slower moving aircraft. YSBK tower told the student to do a full stop due to unsafe flying. The Instructor intervened prior to overtaking the aircraft they were to follow. Due to the nature of the first solo check, this scenario was discussed on the ground with student prior to the solo check and but no further in flight instruction was given in the air to measure student's judgement.
25/8/2019	Goolwa Airfield	SA	Tecnam	P92 Eaglet	Rotax	912 ULS	As the solo student pilot was climbing upwind RWY 19 an RV10 turned right final RWY 01 contrary to e...
As the solo student pilot was climbing upwind RWY 19 an RV10 turned right final RWY 01 contrary to established circuit having radioed an earlier (now known to be incorrect) call for Base 19. The student had made a correct call for entering and rolling 19 before taking off. A gyrocopter also made a taxiing call for 16 and was at the holding point of 19 waiting for the Tecnam to take off in order to cross 01-19 for 16. The student saw the RV10 and turned early left cross wind (correct circuit direction east) at about 200’ to avoid collision. The RV10 then turned left at around 100’-200’ and climbed steeply to the west. The student continued their departure to the training area, the RV 10 returned to the field with a correct DW 19 call for a full stop on 19.

Just after take-off a gust of wind from the rear of the aircraft caused a sudden loss of lift. As there was a line of trees approx. 75m in front and the aircraft was continuing to descend at full throttle the pilot made a shallow left turn at approx. 50ft AGL to avoid the line of trees The aircraft continued to lose height during the 110 degree turn, at which point the pilot found an opening between two tall trees, however far right side of the canopy caught a tree branch which pivoted the aircraft hard right and toward the ground at 45 degrees with the nose striking the ground first and coming to rest some 3-4 metres from impact, upright.
20/8/2019	Bundaberg	QLD	Jabiru	J230-D	Jabiru	3300A	The nose wheel of the aircraft collapsed after a heavy landing.
