## Narrative

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

(-23) AT 02:53Z ON DECEMBER 28, 2000 THE PILOT OF N30T WAS LANDING ON RUNWAY 1R AT WICHITA MID-CONTINENT AIRPORT, WICHITA, KS AFTER AN IFR FLIGHT FROM SPRINGFIELD, MO. WITH TWO PASSENGERS ONBOARD. UPON TOUCHING DOWN ON THE RUNWAY THE PILOT RECOGNIZED THAT THE LANDING GEAR OF THE CE-310 HAD NOT BEEN EXTENDED PRIOR TO ARRIVAL. THE PILOT STATED HE HAD MISIDENTIFIED THE TRANSPONDER GREEN LIGHT FOR THE GREEN DOWN INDICATOR OF THE LANDING GEAR SYSTEM.

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.
