Incident Overview
A tailwheel-equipped airplane, operated by its certificated private pilot/owner accompanied by a certificated flight instructor, was conducting a local flight for a biennial flight review. The pilot/owner performed a simulated forced landing with the engine at idle power, targeting a small road as the landing area.
Sequence of Events
During the landing approach, the pilot slightly overshot the intended landing area. To correct, the pilot executed a steep turn back toward the road. The second pilot, a flight instructor, added engine power, but the airplane stalled approximately 25 feet above the ground. The aircraft descended and struck the ground hard on the left main landing gear.
Damage Assessment
The impact caused damage to the left main landing gear, the left wing, and the associated lift strut, as well as the propeller.
Personnel and Aircraft
Both occupants—the private pilot/owner and the flight instructor—were on board for the review. The aircraft was a tailwheel type, but no further details such as registration, make, or model were provided in the source.
