BE76. STUDENT LOST DIRECTIONAL CTL OF ACFT DURING A SIMULATED ENG FAILURE DURING MEL TRAINING.

Narrative

I WAS GIVING FLT INSTRUCTION TO A COMMERCIAL/MULTI-ENG STUDENT IN A BEECHCRAFT DUCHESS PRIOR TO HIS FLT TEST. WE WERE DOING A SERIES OF TKOFS AND LNDGS AT THE LIVERMORE; CA; ARPT ON RWY 25R. TFC IN THE PATTERN WAS VERY LIGHT SO WE WERE DOING SIMULATED ENG FAILURES ON THE GND RUN; UPWIND; DOWNWIND AND FINAL. WHEN ON SHORT FINAL TO RWY 25R; I SIMULATED A R ENG FAILURE. SINCE WE WERE ALREADY LINED UP WITH THE RWY AND THE AIRPLANE WAS CONFIGURED FOR LNDG; I ASSUMED THE STUDENT WOULD CTL THE PLANE WITH A LITTLE PWR; YAW AND BANK CTL; AND LAND THE PLANE. HE DID; HOWEVER; GO THROUGH THE LITNEY OF ENG OUT PROCS AND ADDED FULL PWR TO THE L ENG. THIS CAUSED AN IMMEDIATE YAW AND ROLL TO THE R AND BEFORE WE COULD GET THINGS UNDER CTL; WE WERE HEADED TOWARD THE RWY 25R RUN-UP AREA AND TXWY; WE GOT CTL OF THE AIRPLANE WITH BOTH ENGS AND CLBED OUT BACK OVER THE RWY AND CONTINUED THE TFC PATTERN. WE WERE APPROX 400 FT AGL WHEN I SIMULATED THE ENG FAILURE AND OVER THE APCH LIGHTS. THIS WAS THE CLOSEST POS TO THE RWY THAT I SIMULATED AN ENG FAILURE THAT FLT -- ALL OTHERS WERE ON THE UPWIND; XWIND; OR DOWNWIND. WE CROSSED OVER THE RUN-UP AREA ABOUT 300 FT AGL. I HAD EXPECTED THE STUDENT TO ADD SOME PWR TO THE GOOD ENG AND CTL YAW AND ROLL BETTER THAN HE DID. I WAS SLOWER THAN HE WAS AND FAST GETTING MYSELF INTO ACTION TO PREVENT THE RWY ALIGNMENT DEV. THE TWR CALLED US ON OUR APCH ACTION AND WANTED TO KNOW IF WE JUST LINED UP WITH THE TXWY BY MISTAKE OR WHAT WAS GOING ON. THE STUDENT TOLD THE TWR EXACTLY WHAT HAPPENED. TWR WAS UPSET WITH US AS WE HAD FLOWN OVER THE RUN-UP AREA WITH A PLANE THERE AND ALSO THERE WAS A PLANE ON THE TXWY GOING TO THE RUN-UP AREA. MY LEVEL OF ALERTNESS SHOULD HAVE BEEN GREATER AND TO ALWAYS EXPECT THE UNEXPECTED NO MATTER WHAT PHASE OF FLT AND WHAT THE EXPERIENCE LEVEL OF THE STUDENT IS.
