## Narrative

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

(-23)PILOT WAS CLEARED TO LAND ON RUNWAY 17 AT NEW CENTURY AIR CENTER, NEW CENTURY, KS (IXD). ON THE BASE TO FINAL TURN THE PILOT PLACED THE GEAR HANDLE DOWN AND CONTINUED THE APPROACH. ON SHORT FINAL HE NOTED THAT HE HAD LOST ALL ELECTRICAL POWER. THE A/C TOUCHED DOWN ON THE RUNWAY WITH THE LANDING GEAR PARTIALLY EXTENDED. ON EXAMINATION BY MAINTENANCE PERSONNEL AT EXECUTIVE BEECHCRAFT, IT APPEARED THAT THE MASTER SWITCH MAY HAVE BEEN FAULTY, CAUSING THE A/C TO LOSE ALL ELECTRICAL POWER WHEN THE LANDING GEAR WAS PARTIALLY EXTENDED.

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.
