Narrative:

During my student's first solo flight, upon touching down on the last landing, he briskly and abruptly increased aileron input into the wind. This brisk abrupt motion caused the upwind wing to dip excessively causing the aircraft to roll slightly to the left. At this moment, the student applied brake pressure, causing an additional turning moment to the left. The plane ran into the grass just slightly to the left side of the runway. The aircraft was undamaged as was the airport property. Contributing factors were nervousness and over anxiousness to get ailerons full into wind.

Original NASA ASRS Text

Title: C172 TRAINEE WENT OFF SIDE OF RWY ON HIS FIRST SOLO FLT.

Narrative: DURING MY STUDENT'S FIRST SOLO FLT, UPON TOUCHING DOWN ON THE LAST LNDG, HE BRISKLY AND ABRUPTLY INCREASED AILERON INPUT INTO THE WIND. THIS BRISK ABRUPT MOTION CAUSED THE UPWIND WING TO DIP EXCESSIVELY CAUSING THE ACFT TO ROLL SLIGHTLY TO THE L. AT THIS MOMENT, THE STUDENT APPLIED BRAKE PRESSURE, CAUSING AN ADDITIONAL TURNING MOMENT TO THE L. THE PLANE RAN INTO THE GRASS JUST SLIGHTLY TO THE L SIDE OF THE RWY. THE ACFT WAS UNDAMAGED AS WAS THE ARPT PROPERTY. CONTRIBUTING FACTORS WERE NERVOUSNESS AND OVER ANXIOUSNESS TO GET AILERONS FULL INTO WIND.
