    On June 11, 2008 a Cessna 152 aircraft with two people on board was conducting flight training at Iba National Airport in the Philippines. During one of the student pilot's landing attempts, a hard bounce occurred which caused the aircraft to bounce three times before the nose landing gear collapsed. The probable cause was determined to be human error from the student pilot's improper recovery from the bounced landing. Safety recommendations included instructing students on how to correct bounce landings before soloing and evaluating flight instructors' competence levels.
