What happened
The FAA’s narrative, in sentence case. The FAA writes it in capitals and removes private details.
On 10/16/2019 at approximately 2230Z, CFI was flying with commercial student in N285MG at kezm. Multiple landings practicing short field, normal, and power off landings were made. On the 8th touch and go for runway 02 under VFR conditions with approximately a 9 knot crosswind coming from the west, while preparing to take off again, student inadvertently put the gear handle in the up position. Immediately, the CFI put the gear handle back in the down position. However, the right main retracted resulting in the right wing contacting the runway. Upon contact, the plane yawed to the right. At this time CFI took control of the aircraft applying left aileron and left rudder correction and maintained directional control until the aircraft came to a full stop. During that time, the CFI shut down the engine and turned off all electronics. Once fully stopped, student and CFI exited the aircraft and moved away to a safe distance.
