Accident Sequence
A certified flight instructor (CFI) and a student pilot were conducting a training flight with the intention of landing on a 2,600-foot paved airstrip. During the final approach, the airplane was high on the glide path, prompting the CFI to place it into a slip. As the airplane neared the runway, it continued to float above the surface. The CFI chose not to execute a balked landing and instead attempted to land the airplane on the remaining runway length.
The airplane touched down at the opposite end of the runway, and the CFI applied the brakes. Despite braking, the airplane continued to roll beyond the runway end onto soft terrain. It subsequently impacted a dirt berm, nosed over, and flipped inverted. The airplane sustained substantial damage.
Investigation Findings
According to the pilot, no preimpact mechanical malfunctions were reported. The accident sequence highlights the decision to continue the landing despite a high and floating approach, resulting in a runway overrun.
Aircraft and Crew Information
The airplane was occupied by the CFI and the student pilot. No further details about the aircraft type, registration, or engine configuration were provided in the source. The occupants were not reported to have sustained injuries.
