## Probable cause

Failure of the commercial pilot (dual student) to maintain a proper descent rate and a safe airspeed during the simulated forced landing.  Additional causes were the failure of the flight instructor and the dual student to initiate a go-around in sufficient time to prevent the hard landing and a failure by the flight instructor to provide timely remedial action, which allowed an unsafe condition to develop.  A contributing factor was the inadvertent stall encountered prior to runway contact.
