2.2 Hours of lessons were conducted prior to the accident. The aircraft was landing on runway 36. The student was receiving multi engine training. This lesson included: preflight, ground operations, taxi, take-off, checklist operations, after inadvertent pilot door opening in flight return for landing, basic maneuvers, slow flight, power off stalls, power on stalls accelerated stalls, steep turns, VMC demo, emergency descent, single engine operations, VOR radial track, traffic pattern operations, and single engine landing. The single right engine, zero thrust landing accident was caused by a misinterpretation of the method to slow the sinking to the runway. The student heard 'abort the landing' when the communication from the instructor was 'add a small amount of power to the 'right' operating engine'. The result of the application of full power to the right engine, was the airplane turned left, the nose pitched up, and a roll to the left was initiated. The left wing tip descended into the runway for approximately 8 feet, which caused the airplane to rotate left for approximately 40 yards, then turning approximately 225DEG where it impacted the ground in an upright position. There were no injuries. Aircraft systems were shut down by checklist. No fluids were observed draining by the instructor or student.
