What happened
The FAA’s narrative, in sentence case. The FAA writes it in capitals and removes private details.
(-23) During the approach the landing gear selector was placed in the down position. The pilot heard the gear extending and saw, what he thought, were three green gear lights illuminated. Upon touch-down on rwy. 34, the pilot realized too late, that only the nose gear had fully extended and locked down. The gear and lights operated normally when the system was inspected with the a/c on jacks. Damage to the a/c as a direct result of the incident,was minor. However, the cost of repairs exceeded the value of the a/c, therefore the a/c was classified as "totaled". The cause can only be expressed as an intermittent restriction somewhere in the main gear hydraulic return lines. Further investigation was determined impractical and this incident was closed.
