Narrative:The certified flight instructor (CFI) stated that while providing instruction to his student he initiated a simulated engine failure. The student selected an airport just below them to do a forced landing. The student turned early for the final as they approached runway 5 and the CFI took control of the airplane and put it into a slip to lose the excess altitude. A witness saw the airplane touchdown at high speed with only a quarter of the runway remaining and observed the airplane engulfed with a heavy mist of water spray as it left the pavement into the grassy end of the runway. The witness then observed the airport weather station to show winds from 240 degrees at 8 knots. The pilot had stated that the airplane was operating normally before the accident.
Probable Cause: The CFI's failure to initiate a go-around when he noticed the flight was high and fast during the approach resulting in the flight landing long, overrunning the runway, and colliding with trees. Factors in the accident were a tail wind and a wet runway.
