Incident Overview
A private pilot and a flight instructor check pilot were completing a flight review at an airport where the aircraft was based. The airport elevation was 7,171 feet above mean sea level (msl), with a temperature of 72 degrees Fahrenheit. The computed density altitude was 9,300 feet, and the wind included a 4-knot tailwind component.
Landing and Runway Excursion
During the full-stop landing, the pilot described the landing as "long and fast." The ground speed was calculated to be 31 knots above the indicated airspeed due to the tailwind. The aircraft subsequently departed the end of the runway during the landing roll and struck a blast fence.
Damage and Occupant Status
The collision destroyed the aircraft. However, the private pilot and the flight instructor check pilot were not injured.
Environmental Factors
No information was provided regarding the time of day, visibility, or other weather conditions beyond the temperature, wind, and density altitude. The airport's high elevation and the tailwind contributed to the increased ground speed and landing distance.
