The owner of the accident airplane reported that the certificated flight instructor was conducting a Title 14, CFR Part 91 instructional flight giving tailwheel instruction and practicing wheel landings, when the dual student applied the brakes too heavily, and the airplane nosed over. The owner said the instructor reported damage to the wing leading edges, rudder and lift struts. The owner indicated there were no known mechanical anomalies with the airplane prior to the accident.
Probable Cause: The flight instructor's inadequate supervision of the dual student, and his failure to maintain control of the airplane. A factor associated with the accident was the dual student's excessive application of the brakes.
