The Piper PA-28-181 Archer II made a forced landing in a field during a training flight. The two onboard were not injured.
Cause:
The incident occurred due to the impact of the aircraft, which was engaged in a simulated engine failure, with a tree that was not immediately visible to the crew until they were very close to it and at a lower altitude.
A contributing factor in the occurrence of the event was the decision to carry out the simulation below the permitted flight altitude.
