## Narrative

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

(-23) ON LANDING ON RUNWAY 23 AT NEW LENOX/HOWELL AIRPORT, IL, PILOT FORGOT TO LOWER LANDING GEAR. MOST DAMAGE WAS TO PROPELLERS AND ENGINES. THIS WAS A ROUND TRIP FROM NEW LENOX TO LA PORTE INDIANA AND RETURN. OWNER OF AIRPLANE MENTIONED THAT INSURANCE COMPANY HAS DETERMINED TOTAL COST TO REPAIR AIRPLANE IS GREATER THAN ACTUAL VALUE OF AIRPLANE. PILOT STATED HE ALSO WAS DISTRACTED BECAUSE OF HIS WIFE'S FAILING HEALTH AND PROBABLY SHOULD NOT HAVE FLOWN THAT DAY.
