## Narrative

As the FAA filed it, in capitals; the FAA replaces private details with ^PRIVACY DATA OMITTED^.

NARRATIVE: DURING LANDING ROLL OUT PILOT SAID THAT THE LANDING GEAR COLLAPSED. AFTER LANDING ON RUNWAY 5 AT ANNISTON AIRPORT. MECHANIC MARK MORRISON & MR. DENTON, BOTH EMPLOYEES OF ANNISTON EXECUTIVE AVIATION, STATED THAT UPON ARRIVAL AT THE SCENE THE LANDING GEAR SELECTOR SWITCH WAS IN THE "UP" POSITION. ALL 3 GEAR WERE RETRACTED, WITH DAMAGE TO BELLY SKINS, GEAR DOORS, AND LEFT WING. INSPECTION OF AIRCRAFT COMPLETED ON 4-18-95 FOUND LANDING GEAR RETRACT SYSTEM COMPONENTS, DAMAGED FROM SIDE LOAD BY RETRACTION. NO COMPONENTS SHOWED DAMAGE FROM COLLAPSING. THE CAUSE APPEARS TO BE PILOT ERROR. THIS WILL CLOSE THIS INCIDENT.

From the FAA Accident/Incident Data System. Reports are matched to registry aircraft by N-number and event date, checked against the reported make and model; the registry's history has gaps, so older matches can be wrong. Compare the reported make and model. For accidents, the NTSB's own investigation is the fuller record.
