THE CFI STATED THAT DURING THE DOWNWIND LEG, HE WAS EXPLAINING A MANEUVER TO A STUDENT WHILE SIMULTANEOUSLY REDUCING THROTTLE & LOWERING COLLECTIVE. HE DID NOT APPLY CARBURETOR HEAT. THE TURN TO BASE WAS SLOW & AFTER REALIZING THAT THE FLT WOULD NOT LAND AT THE PLANNED TOUCHDOWN POINT, THE CFI APPLIED POWER TO GO-AROUND BUT THE ENG WAS SLOW TO RESPOND.
