Narrative:

A friend and a student wanted to fly an small aircraft to get some recurrency training. We lifted off from addison airport about XA00 for mesquite for some touch-and-goes. We successfully completed 1 touch-and-go and a go around. On the second touch-and-go the student landed the airplane and on the rollout I told him, 'let's go again.' he gave throttle and raised the flaps to 15 degrees (flap takeoff setting). While the flaps were coming up I quickly looked out on the wing to verify flaps set, then as I looked back the nose pitched down and the propeller struck the ground hard. I took over control of the airplane, pitching up and giving full throttle as a reflex and got in the air. Knowing that the propeller was severely damaged, I smoothly set the airplane back on the runway. As we had been in the air a brief moment the main gears had retracted. This was not obvious to me at the time since the incident felt more like a flat tire or a malfunction of the nose gear. It is obvious that the student selected gear up while I was verifying that the flaps were set at 15 degrees, as also is confirmed by his statement to FAA. My decision to put the airplane back on the runway, instead of trying to make it around the traffic pattern with a damaged propeller and maybe a damaged engine, risking to lose the engine somewhere in pattern, would still be the same if I knew the gear was up.

Title: INSTRUCTOR WITH STUDENT GIVING RECURRENT TRAINING HAS GEAR UP LNDG.

Narrative: A FRIEND AND A STUDENT WANTED TO FLY AN SMA TO GET SOME RECURRENCY TRAINING. WE LIFTED OFF FROM ADDISON ARPT ABOUT XA00 FOR MESQUITE FOR SOME TOUCH-AND-GOES. WE SUCCESSFULLY COMPLETED 1 TOUCH-AND-GO AND A GAR. ON THE SECOND TOUCH-AND-GO THE STUDENT LANDED THE AIRPLANE AND ON THE ROLLOUT I TOLD HIM, 'LET'S GO AGAIN.' HE GAVE THROTTLE AND RAISED THE FLAPS TO 15 DEGS (FLAP TKOF SETTING). WHILE THE FLAPS WERE COMING UP I QUICKLY LOOKED OUT ON THE WING TO VERIFY FLAPS SET, THEN AS I LOOKED BACK THE NOSE PITCHED DOWN AND THE PROP STRUCK THE GND HARD. I TOOK OVER CTL OF THE AIRPLANE, PITCHING UP AND GIVING FULL THROTTLE AS A REFLEX AND GOT IN THE AIR. KNOWING THAT THE PROP WAS SEVERELY DAMAGED, I SMOOTHLY SET THE AIRPLANE BACK ON THE RWY. AS WE HAD BEEN IN THE AIR A BRIEF MOMENT THE MAIN GEARS HAD RETRACTED. THIS WAS NOT OBVIOUS TO ME AT THE TIME SINCE THE INCIDENT FELT MORE LIKE A FLAT TIRE OR A MALFUNCTION OF THE NOSE GEAR. IT IS OBVIOUS THAT THE STUDENT SELECTED GEAR UP WHILE I WAS VERIFYING THAT THE FLAPS WERE SET AT 15 DEGS, AS ALSO IS CONFIRMED BY HIS STATEMENT TO FAA. MY DECISION TO PUT THE AIRPLANE BACK ON THE RWY, INSTEAD OF TRYING TO MAKE IT AROUND THE TFC PATTERN WITH A DAMAGED PROP AND MAYBE A DAMAGED ENG, RISKING TO LOSE THE ENG SOMEWHERE IN PATTERN, WOULD STILL BE THE SAME IF I KNEW THE GEAR WAS UP.
