What happened
The FAA’s narrative, in sentence case. The FAA writes it in capitals and removes private details.
Narrative: as reported by PIC. Experienced total in-flight electrical power failure. Could not communicate problem to dvt tower. Attempted to lower gear manually, but experienced stiff/binding operation, and could not completely lower gear. Entered dvt traffic pattern remaining clear of other aircraft and completed several approaches to land with go-arounds while continuing to work gear manually. Emergency vehicles were dispatched and standing-by. Received flashing green-red lights from tower and completed several more approaches and go-arounds. Then decided to belly land the aircraft with partial gear down and landed on runway 25R. Performed emergency shut down prior to touchdown. Propeller struck runway and aircraft skidded to a stop. Unable to determine cause of electrical failure and why manual extension would not operate properly.
