## Narrative

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

(-23) PILOT STATED THAT HE "PLACED LANDING GEAR DOWN PRIOR TO BASE ENTRY, CHECKED GEAR INDICATOR, CHECKED LIGHTS, AND GEAR PINS"(TOP OF WING). AFTER MAKING A TWO POINT LANDING AND ROLLING TWO THIRDS DOWN THE RUNWAY, THE RIGHT GEAR FOLDED FOLLOWED BY THE LEFT. NOTE: MAINTENANCE COULD NOT IDENTIFY A CAUSE FOLLOWING INSPECTION AND FUNCTIONAL TESTS OF THE LANDING GEAR SYSTEM. IT IS SUSPECTED THAT SINCE THE GEAR HANDLE IS CLOSE TO THE FLAP HANDLE THAT THE PILOT MAY HAVE INADVERTENTLY RETRACTED THE LANDING GEAR INSTEAD OF THE FLAPS.
