Narrative:
We were on a left downwind for runway 14R when tower advised us that we were number two for the runway following a jetstream on four mile final. I spotted the jetstream and advised tower that I had my traffic in sight and would follow that traffic. Knowing that the jetstream would be producing wake turbulence, I planned to stay above its flight path and land beyond its touchdown point. As it passed by our left side, I started my turn to base, staying above its flight path. On my base and turn to final, I watched the jetstream to determine its touchdown point, I could touchdown beyond that point. When we were on final, tower cleared us to land runway 14R, hold short runway 22R. I read back that we were cleared to land runway 14R, hold short of runway 22R. Now I had to touchdown beyond the jetstream's touchdown point and hold short of runway 22R. I determined that I should touchdown at or beyond the fixed dist markers to be safe of the wake turbulence, and still be able to hold short of runway 22R. As we crossed the fixed dist markers, I began to round out for touchdown. The plane floated in ground effect longer than expected, then when we touched down, the plane bounced an became airborne again. At this point, the instructor prompted me to go around, so I applied full power and executed a go around. As I did this, the instructor notified tower that we were going around. The tower then notified the aircraft landing on runway 22R, that their traffic on runway 14R was going around. This could have been avoided had I not accepted the land and hold short clearance.

Title: PIPER PA28-80 PLT ON CHECK RIDE MOMENTARILY LOST CTL OF ACFT DURING LNDG AND BOUNCED RESULTING IN A GAR INSTEAD OF LNDG AND HOLDING SHORT OF A CROSS RWY AS REQUESTED BY TOWER, AND AGREED TO BY THE RPTR.
Narrative: WE WERE ON A LEFT DOWNWIND FOR RWY 14R WHEN TWR ADVISED US THAT WE WERE NUMBER TWO FOR THE RWY FOLLOWING A JETSTREAM ON FOUR MILE FINAL. I SPOTTED THE JETSTREAM AND ADVISED TOWER THAT I HAD MY TFC IN SIGHT AND WOULD FOLLOW THAT TFC. KNOWING THAT THE JETSTREAM WOULD BE PRODUCING WAKE TURB, I PLANNED TO STAY ABOVE ITS FLT PATH AND LAND BEYOND ITS TOUCHDOWN POINT. AS IT PASSED BY OUR LEFT SIDE, I STARTED MY TURN TO BASE, STAYING ABOVE ITS FLT PATH. ON MY BASE AND TURN TO FINAL, I WATCHED THE JETSTREAM TO DETERMINE ITS TOUCHDOWN POINT, I COULD TOUCHDOWN BEYOND THAT POINT. WHEN WE WERE ON FINAL, TOWER CLRED US TO LAND RWY 14R, HOLD SHORT RWY 22R. I READ BACK THAT WE WERE CLRED TO LAND RWY 14R, HOLD SHORT OF RWY 22R. NOW I HAD TO TOUCHDOWN BEYOND THE JETSTREAM'S TOUCHDOWN POINT AND HOLD SHORT OF RWY 22R. I DETERMINED THAT I SHOULD TOUCHDOWN AT OR BEYOND THE FIXED DIST MARKERS TO BE SAFE OF THE WAKE TURB, AND STILL BE ABLE TO HOLD SHORT OF RWY 22R. AS WE CROSSED THE FIXED DIST MARKERS, I BEGAN TO ROUND OUT FOR TOUCHDOWN. THE PLANE FLOATED IN GND EFFECT LONGER THAN EXPECTED, THEN WHEN WE TOUCHED DOWN, THE PLANE BOUNCED AN BECAME AIRBORNE AGAIN. AT THIS POINT, THE INSTRUCTOR PROMPTED ME TO GAR, SO I APPLIED FULL PWR AND EXECUTED A GAR. AS I DID THIS, THE INSTRUCTOR NOTIFIED TOWER THAT WE WERE GOING AROUND. THE TWR THEN NOTIFIED THE ACFT LNDG ON RWY 22R, THAT THEIR TFC ON RWY 14R WAS GOING AROUND. THIS COULD HAVE BEEN AVOIDED HAD I NOT ACCEPTED THE LAND AND HOLD SHORT CLRNC.
