## Narrative

As the FAA filed it, in capitals; the FAA replaces private details with ^PRIVACY DATA OMITTED^.

AIRCRAFT DEPARTED ARLINGTON, TX, ON AN INSTRUCTIONAL FLIGHT TO FORT WORTH SPINKS AIRPORT (KFWS) FOR THE PURPOSE OF TAKEOFF AND LANDING PRACTICE.  ON BOARD WERE AN INSTRUCTOR (PIC) AND STUDENT.  THE AIRCRAFT COMPLETED SEVERAL TOUCH AND GO LANDINGS AT THE KFWS AIRPORT.  ON THE LAST LANDING, THE STUDENT ALLOWED THE AIRCRAFT TO BOUNCE AND DID NOT INITIATE A RECOVERY.  THE INSTRUCTOR TOOK OVER CONTROL OF THE AIRCRAFT AND THE AIRCRAFT PITCHED UP TO AN EXCESSIVE PITCH ATTITUDE.  THE LEFT WING DROPPED AND THE AIRCRAFT IMPACTED THE RUNWAY.  THE AIRCRAFT BOUNCED ONCE MORE, DEPARTED THE RUNWAY, AND CAME TO REST ON THE LEFT SIDE OF THE RUNWAY.  BOTH OCCUPANTS EXITED THE AIRCRAFT WITHOUT ASSISTANCE.
