Incident Sequence
According to the official investigation source, a student pilot made a long landing and the aircraft began porpoising. The flight instructor then took control of the aircraft, applied power, and returned the airplane to the air. However, after becoming airborne, the airplane started to settle despite full power being applied. The flight instructor decided to attempt a short field landing. During this attempt, the airplane ran off the departure end of the runway and went down an embankment.

The flight instructor (CFI) had received his rating four years prior to the incident. This was his first student. He had renewed his flight instructor certificate once, at a renewal clinic.
