The commercial pilot, who was receiving dual instruction for agricultural operations, landed the tailwheel-equipped airplane on runway 34 (4,000-feet long by 50-feet wide). During the landing roll, the airplane nosed over when "excessive braking action took place." The winds at the airport were from 040 degrees at 10-12 knots. The weather observation facility located approximately 34 nautical miles north of the accident site reported the wind from 050 degrees at 11 knots gusting to 18 knots.
Probable Cause: The inadequate supervision by the flight instructor of the pilot who was receiving instruction resulting in the excessive application of the brakes during the landing roll resulting in a nose over. A factor was the gusty crosswind conditions.
