What happened
The FAA’s narrative, in sentence case. The FAA writes it in capitals and removes private details.
(-23) The mishap pilot was in the local traffic pattern preparing to land and upon extending the landing gear he failed to get a green light and had the gear warning horn sounding. He informed the tower of the problem, cycled the gear three times and was advised by the tower that the nose landing gear appeared to be cocked. At this point he departed the traffic pattern southbound where he attempted to further extend the gear by pitching abruptly upward with no effect. He then performed an emergency gear extension, returned to the local pattern and was advised the nose gear still appeared to be cocked but he had a green indication and no warning horn. After landing and during rollout the nose gear collapsed.
