Factual narrative

THE ACFT LANDED HARD FOLLOWING A SIMULATED SHORT FIELD LANDING OVER AN OBSTACLE. POWER WAS REDUCED AS THE ACFT CLEARED THE IMAGINARY OBSTACLE BUT THERE WAS A SLIGHT DELAY IN LOWERING THE NOSE TO MAINTAIN AIRSPEED. THE ACFT WAS FLARED AT A HIGH SINK RATE WITHOUT POWER AND WAS SUBSTANTIALLY DAMAGED. Source: NTSB Aviation Accident Database (Pre-2008 Archive) Retrieved: 2026-02-12
