Read the full NTSB narrative

The airplane, operated as an instructional flight, overran runway 22 during an aborted touch and go takeoff. According to the certified flight instructor (CFI), the private pilot was attempting to perform a short field landing. The CFI stated that the pilot misjudged the flare, the airplane ballooned again, power was added, and a landing made. The private pilot retracted flaps and added power at what was described by the CFI as slower than normal and beyond the half way point of the runway or about 1,200 feet of runway remaining. After full power was established, the CFI reportedly commented to the private pilot on the length of time it took him to add power. The private pilot then reportedly closed the throttle. The CFI stated that prior to the power reduction, they had enough runway remaining.
