THE STUDENT & INSTRUCTOR PLT (CFI) WERE PRACTICING LANDINGS IN THE STUDENT'S ACFT, WHICH WAS EQUIPPED WITH BRAKES ONLY ON THE LEFT SIDE. REPORTEDLY, THE STUDENT FLARED HIGH DURING A LANDING & THE CFI ADDED POWER TO RECOVER. AFTER TOUCHDOWN, THE ROLL-OUT WAS USING A LARGE PART OF THE RWY, SO THE CFI ASKED THE STUDENT TO APPLY BRAKES TO SLOW THE ACFT. THE BRAKES WERE APPLIED UNEVENLY, AND SUBSEQUENTLY, THE PLANE VEERED TO THE RIGHT & THE RIGHT WING WAS ULTIMATELY DAMAGED.
