## Narrative

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

(-23) AIRCRAFT LANDED WITH GEAR UP. WHEN I ARRIVED THE GEAR HANDLE WAS DOWN AND BOTH LIGHTS WERE OPERATIONAL WITH THE CIRCUIT BREAKER BEING POPPED.  IT WAS DETERMINED THAT A WIRE WAS BROKEN AT THE MOTOR WHICH ALLOWED IT TO RUN CONTINUOUSLY UNTIL IT POPPED THE CIRCUIT BREAKER.  ONCE THE WIRE WAS RE-CONNECTED, THE SYSTEM PERFORMED WITHOUT ANY PROBLEMS.

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.
