"On 19 January 2017, a Cessna 172 aircraft (registration C-GZXB, serial number 172S8141) operated by the Victoria Flying Club departed from Victoria International Airport, British Columbia, for a day visual flight rules training flight with an instructor and a student pilot on board. About 1½ hours into the flight, the aircraft made an approach to Runway 31 at Duncan Aerodrome, British Columbia, to conduct a short-field landing. At 1311 Pacific Standard Time, the aircraft touched down approximately one-third of the way down the runway and after an attempt to brake, a takeoff was attempted. The aircraft struck trees and then power lines off the north end of Runway 31 and came to rest upside down under the power lines, about 500 feet from the departure end of the runway. The instructor was seriously injured, and the student sustained minor injuries. The aircraft was substantially damaged, and the emergency locator transmitter activated. There was no fire”--Summary, t.p.
