THE FLT WAS BEING ACCOMPLISHED TO REFAMILIARIZE THE COMMERCIAL PLT WITH THE AIRPLANE PRIOR TO COMPLETING THE REMAINDER OF THE TRAINING CURRICULUM. ONE TAKEOFF AND LDG HAD BEEN COMPLETED WITHOUT INCIDENT. DURING THE SECOND APPROACH TO LANDING, IT WAS RELATED THAT THE APCH WAS NORMAL WITH THE AIRSPEED SOMEWHAT ABOVE 1.3VS. THE STUDENT FLARED THE ACFT TO A THREE POINT ATTITUDE AND THE WHEELS EITHER TOUCHED DOWN OR BRUSHED THE RUNWAY. AT THIS POINT, THE RIGHT WING WAS PICKED UP AND COULD NOT BE CONTROLLED BY USE OF THE AILERONS. THE ACFT TURNED ABOUT 45 DEG TO THE RWY AND FULL POWER WAS APPLIED. THE WHEELS COLLIDED WITH A 4 1/2 TO 5 FT RISE IN THE GROUND AND TURNED BACK TOWARD THE RWY. THE LEFT MAIN GEAR COLLAPSED AND THE LEFT WING SPARS WERE BROKEN. NO INJURIES WERE REPORTED.
