## Narrative

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

ON FEBRUARY 28, 2000, N8830M RETURNED TO EAST KANSAS CITY AIRPORT AFTER COMPLETING AN INSTRUMENT CHECKRIDE AT KANSAS CITY DOWNTOWN AIRPORT (MKC) AND LANDING ON RUNAWAY 27 AT EAST KANSAS CITY AIRPORT (3GV) WITHOUT THE LANDING GEAR EXTENDED. DAMAGE TO THE PROPELLOR, LANDING GEAR DOOR, AND BELLY SKIN OF THE AIRCRAFT WAS NOTED. AFTER AN ADDITIONAL INSPECTION OF THE AIRCRAFT, THE LANDING GEAR MOTOR CIRCUIT BREAKER WAS FOUND DAMAGED.

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.
