| Confidence Rating: |  Accident investigation report completed and information captured |
The flight instructor requested that the pilot demonstrate a "power-off 180-degree accuracy approach and landing to the 1000-foot mark" on runway 15 with no flaps. The pilot was low on the approach. As the airplane crossed the runway threshold, they felt an impact and the airplane landed "hard." The airplane had struck a two-foot high snow bank that was between the threshold lights. The instructor said the upslope runway, inability to brighten the airspeed readout on the G1000 avionics system, and dusk light conditions contributed to the accident.
Probable Cause: The pilot's failure to attain the proper touchdown point during dusk light conditions, and his failure to execute a go-around.
