ON NOVEMBER 30, 2011, N142SF, A CIRRUS SR20, MADE A HARD LANDING DURING AN INSTRUCTIONAL FLIGHT ON RUNWAY 21 AT THE SCOTTSDALE AIRPORT. THE STUDENT PILOT, ^PRIVACY DATA OMITTED^, HAD INITIATED A POWER-OFF APPROACH WHICH WAS NORMAL UNTIL THE AIRCRAFT STARTED TO ROUND OUT THE PITCH ATTITUDE OF THE AIRCRAFT AT APPROXIAMTELY 20-30 FEET ABOVE THE GROUND AT WHICH POINT THE AIRSPEED BLEED OFF RAPIDLY CAUSING THE AIRCRAFT TO STALL AT ABOUT 20 FEET ABOVE THE GROUND. THE INSTRUCTOR, ^PRIVACY DATA OMITTED^, TOOK OVER THE FLIGHT CONTROLS AND TRIED TO INITIATE A GO-AROUND BUT THE AIRCRAFT CAME IN CONTACT WITH THE RUNWAY RESULTING IN A HARD LANDING. THE AIRCRAFT THEN BOUNCED UP AND THE INSTRUCTOR CONINTUED WITH THE GO-AROUND AND PROCEEDED TO STAY IN THE TRAFFIC PATTERN AND LAND ON RUNWAY 21 TO A FULL STOP.
