What happened
The FAA’s narrative, in sentence case. The FAA writes it in capitals and removes private details.
Narrative: the pilot encountered an abnormal situation about 30 minutes into the flight with the right brake pressure being depleted. The pilot decided to turn back to Scottsdale airport and land. While the pilot was on a 3 mile left base for runway 3, he put the gear down and did not have a green light indicating gear down. He then executed the emergency procedures and performed emergency gear extension by pumping (30-40 times), but did not get any indication of gear down and locked. The pilot said he tried to dislodge the right main gear by making steep turns. After conversing with the aircraft owner and ATC, he made a gear-up landing. The pilot suffered no injuries. The aircraft sustained minor damage to the fuselage undercarriage and "q" tipped both prop blades.
