What happened
The FAA’s narrative, in sentence case. The FAA writes it in capitals and removes private details.
On October 10, 2020 at 0950, the crew was returning from an instrument procedures check. During landing, the aircraft was slow and short of the touchdown point. The pilot at the controls (under instruction) attempted a go-around but the aircraft stalled, landed hard, bounced, veered off the runway to the left, struck a parked aircraft, and came to a rest in the grass. Comments: spas checked. Both pilots were current in their flight review, medical, and currency requirements. Both also met sfra training requirements for operation in that airspace. The CFI initially declared that the pilot under instruction was the PIC. However, after providing samples of NTSB case law and an explanation of the relevant cfrs, he agreed that this was an instructional flight and that he was the PIC.
