Narrative:

I had the student perform a go-around from an aborted short field landing. On climb out; the lynx ads-B warned of traffic 400 feet above and slightly behind our aircraft. I was unsure if this was an anomaly until the traffic began a right hand turn. I looked out the window to see a yellow/blue rv doing an overhead break maneuver. Had my aircraft not had the lynx installed; we would have climbed right into the initial overhead traffic. I never heard the rv make any radio calls on CTAF. In the past; when asked over the radio why the rvs perform this maneuver their response is 'it's in the aim.' aim 5-4-27 describes the overhead approach maneuver as an IFR recover in VMC; developed at airports where aircraft have the operational need to conduct the maneuver. In my opinion; the FSDO should visit the airfield to observe the rvs performing this maneuver to see how much it negatively impacts the safe operations of aircraft in the aim recommended traffic pattern.
