What happened
The FAA’s narrative, in sentence case. The FAA writes it in capitals and removes private details.
Narrative: aircraft slid to a stop with the main gear doors partly open (approx. 4-5"). Landing gear c/b had popped. Pilot stated that he had extended the landing gear, but "something didn't feel right" upon landing. Aircraft was lifted off runway and gear was extended manually with no problems. Later, with the plane on jacks, the gear was extended and retracted electrically several times with no problems. All green and amber position indicator lights also functioned properly.
