Analysis
While in the traffic pattern on an instructional flt, the instructor (CFI) elected to demonstrate a short field lndg, followed by a short field takeoff. The student rprtd that after lift-off on the short field takeoff, the CFI flew the acft to a nose hi attitude, similar to what would be used for pwr on stalls, which the student questioned. Shortly thereafter, the stall warning horn sounded & the acft stalled from about 100' AGL. It struck the gnd bfr the CFI could recover. A fire started in the eng compartment after the acft came to rest. The CFI was seriously injured drg impact & was unconscious after the acdnt. The student plt had only minor injuries & pulled the CFI fm the acft. A test of the cfi's blood (about 4 hrs after the acdnt) showed an alcohol lvl of 0.11% (0.11 gms%).
