Narrative:

Approach altitude was slightly high. Airspeed on first T/D approximately 70 KIAS airplane lifted off. Correction was made and second T/D produced same results. Airplane now in ground effect and second correction produced undesired result of oscillation occurring. On fourth T/D nose gear T/D first and collapsed produced damage to airplane. Pilot error caused incident.
