| Confidence Rating: |  Accident investigation report completed and information captured |
During a practice short field landing, the airplane landed hard, the propellers struck the ground, the wings buckled, and the firewall buckled. The student allowed the airplane to slow and an excessive sink rate developed. The flight instructor ordered a go-around, but the student was late reacting. The flight instructor then pushed the throttles forward herself but could not compensate for the airplane's high sink rate.
Probable Cause: The certified flight instructor's inadequate supervision of the student who failed to maintain adequate airspeed on approach, resulting in a stall/mush, and delayed remedial action when the flight instructor ordered a go-around.
