What happened
The FAA’s narrative, in sentence case. The FAA writes it in capitals and removes private details.
Training flight departed from khum (houma) about 9:30 am in a Cessna 140. The pilot at the controls was in the left seat and the instructor was in the right seat. They flew to L83 (Thibodaux) to practice take-offs and landings. They completed 2 landings to a full stop without incident. On the next take-off roll the pilot over-controlled for runway alignment and, in the process, put on breaks which caused the nose-over. Neither occupant was injured in the accident.
