The FAA’s narrative, in sentence case. The FAA writes it in capitals and removes private details.
During a dual training flight, teaching signle engine operations at johns field (foo) RNAV17. Reached foo and performed a simullated single engine landing event, resultes uneventful. Proceeded with briefing of action to accomplish. Then short take off, reduced left throttle to idle, student maintained directional control but struggled with action items. The student was verbalizing but not doing. I stated mixture, propes, throttle. Student advancted misture and props and began base turn. I stated throttle agian, student advanced throttle and continuted base turn. I noted airspeed at 75 and decreasing and nearing threshold and the plane felt like it was sinking, so I took controll and leveled the wings and lowered the nose to recover some airspeed. The plane rounded out and touched down softly. At that point, I realized the gear was still up.
