Sequence of events
NTSB’s coding before 2008: each occurrence and phase of flight, and the causes and factors under it. The codes are defined in NTSB’s coding manual.
Analysis
While on final approach, the instructor noticed the airspeed fall below 55 knots. He took control of the airplane from the student. The instructor pushed forward on the yoke and added full power to regain airspeed. He lost control of the airplane and it collided with the terrain in an uncontrolled descent. There were no mechanical problems prior to the accident.
