What happened
The FAA’s narrative, in sentence case. The FAA writes it in capitals and removes private details.
Narrative: on January 19, 1994, at approximately 13:30 local time a Beechcraft debonair (BE35-A33) landed on runway 17 at Altus Municipal Airport (axs). The landing gear retracted after touch down there was no fire and the aircraft suffered minor damage, including the propeller, landing gear linkages and doors, lower fuselage skin and flaps. The pilot, Mr. David lee, was the lone occupant. He said he put the landing gear down when he entered the pattern. He thinks he may not have securely placed the gear switch in the down detent because he said that after exiting the aircraft, he went back to check and the switch was in the up position and he put it in the down position to check the detent. The spring that holds the switch lever in the up or down detent seems weak. The landing gear door and linkage damage indicates the landing gear was partially down during landing. M or d submitted. This incident closed.
