A BE36 instructor took the aircraft from his trainee on short final because of a runway misalignment...

Narrative:

We were practicing simulated engine failure and forced landing over the airport. The gear up warning was on all the time as soon as I reduced the power to idle. Because the wind was drifting the airplane towards the runway and the airspeed was too high just before base turn; I knew that if he kept his present airspeed the aircraft will overshoot the final. As we started the base turn; I instructed the trainee to reduce the airspeed and set the flaps to approach. Soon after that I told the trainee to set the flaps to landing position. But the aircraft overshot the final. The trainee tried to make a correction; which was too big. I took over the control and corrected the drift. It was over the numbers when the drift was corrected so I decided to hold on to the controls and land the aircraft. I was concentrating so much on aligning the aircraft that I did not hear the gear warning horn after the base turn and had no idea that the gear was up. The aircraft landed gear up and then I heard the horn again.

Title: A BE36 Instructor took the aircraft from his Trainee on short final because of a runway misalignment during a single engine approach. The landing gear warning horn was disregarded earlier and in the confusion of the trainee's approach difficulty the gear was not lowered before landing.
