Narrative:
The flight was conducted to allow the owner to accrue two hours of instruction for insurance purposes. The flight instructor was performing a landing when the accident occurred. According to a statement by the owner, "During landing roll-out aircraft drifted toward right side of runway at which time the instructor exclaimed 'I don't have brakes over here'. Brakes were applied by trainee [owner] causing aircraft to nose over and come to rest on its back." Brakes were installed only in the left seat position. The flight instructor was seated in the right seat position. No pre-existing anomalies were found during a postaccident inspection of the aircraft.

Probable Cause: the excessive brakes applied by the second pilot. A factor to the accident was the unavailability of brakes on the flight instructor's side of the aircraft.
