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
The acft went off the wet runway onto the wet grass down an embankment and into some rocks. The instructor was making this final landing. Braking was poor from a light rain. As a turn was started onto a taxiway at the end of runway 22 the acft went onto the wet grass and continued down an embankment. The brakes were checked and operated satisfactorily after the accident.
