## Narrative

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

THE FLIGHT WAS A TRAINING FLIGHT FOR A PILOT RATED STUDENT, WHO WAS SITTING IN THE FORWARD SEAT, AND THE CFI IN THE AFT SEAT. ON LANDING, THE BRAKES WERE MISSAPPLIED, RESULTING IN THE AIRCRAFT PITCHING DOWNWARD AND FLIPPING OVER, RESTING ON THE RUNWAY IN THE INVERTED POSITION. THE PILOTS EVACUATED WITH THE STUDENT SUFFERING MINOR INJURIES. THE DAMAGE TO THE AIRCRAFT INCLUDES STRUCTURAL BENDS ALONG IT'S LONGITUDINAL AXIS, AND DAMAGED PROPELLER.
