Accident Details
After landing, a tail-wheel equipped airplane carrying a certificated flight instructor (CFI) and a private pilot receiving instruction was requested by the airport control tower to exit the runway. The private pilot reported "unable" because the airplane had already passed the intersection taxiway. The tower then requested that the pilots exit the active runway "as soon as possible." The CFI stated that the private pilot attempted to comply, but the airplane's speed was too fast during the turn, causing the airplane to ground-loop.
Damage
During the ground-loop, the airplane sustained substantial damage to the left main landing gear, left wing tip, and left elevator. No other damage was reported.
Aircraft Information
The CFI reported no malfunctions with the airplane prior to the accident. The airplane was equipped with a tail-wheel landing gear configuration.
