Analysis

Reportedly, the flt instructor (CFI) elected to demonstrate a short field landing & landed the acft with the stall warning sys on. He reported that after touchdown, he tried to slow the acft with the brakes, but it would not slow down. The CFI then elected to go around, but had insufficient airspeed. Subsequently, the acft went off the end of the rwy & came to rest upside down in water.
