Probable cause
the pilot-in-command (CFI)'s inadequate supervision of the student, his not obtaining control of the airplane, and his lack of total experience in the type of operation. A factor was the dual student's not maintaining control of the airplane.

Read the full NTSB narrative
During a simulated engine out landing, the student initiated an aborted landing. The airplane yawed and rolled right. The instructor pilot took control of the airplane; however, was unable to establish a climb and the airplane impacted the terrain. The instructor's written statement indicated no previous experience in giving dual instruction in multi-engine airplanes. An inspection of the airplane failed to reveal any pre-accident anomalies.
