Circumstances:
The crew was engaged in a local training flight at Clermont-Ferrand-Aulnat Airport. During the takeoff roll, the instructor voluntarily shut down the engine n°4 to simulate a failure. The pilot-in-command lost control of the airplane that veered off runway to the right and came to rest in a grassy area. While both pilots were uninjured, the aircraft was damaged beyond repair.
