## Sequence of events

In NTSB's coding before 2008 (https://www.ntsb.gov/GILS/Documents/codman.pdf).

- Loss of control - on ground/water, landing - roll
  - brakes(normal) - excessive, dual student (cause)
  - lack of recent experience in kind of aircraft, pilot in command(cfi) (cause)
  - supervision - inadequate, pilot in command(cfi) (cause)
- Nose over, landing - roll

## Analysis

THE ACFT NOSED OVER DURING LANDING WHILE ON A DUAL INSTRUCTIONAL FLT. THE CFI STATED THE STUDENT APPLIED TOO MUCH BRAKE ON THE FIRST LANDING AND ALMOST NOSED OVER. DURING THE 2ND LANDING THE STUDENT AGAIN APPLIED EXCESSIVE BRAKING AND THE ACFT NOSED OVER. THE CFI STATED THAT HE HAD WARNED THE STUDENT ABOUT EXCESSIVE BRAKING DURING A BRIEFING. THE CFI HAD A TOTAL OF 5 HOURS IN THIS TYPE ACFT.
