Investigator assessment

Analysis narrative

The dual student was receiving emergency landing training. Power was reduced while on approach which resulted in a loss of airspeed and a high sink rate. Corrective action was initiated too late and the aircraft touched down a few feet short. The landing gear contacted an elevated lip at the end of the hard surface of the runway and the nose gear collapsed.
