## Narrative

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

(-23) APPROXIMATELY 30 MINUTES BEFORE LANDING, AIRCRAFT EXPERIENCED LOSS OF ELECTRICAL POWER. PIC ATTEMPTED TO CYCLE TO LANDING GEAR DOWN UNSUCCESSFULLY, THEN PROCEEDED TO LOWER THE GEAR MANUALLY. HE STOPPED ONCE HE FELT, WHAT HE BELIEVED WAS STOP RESISTANCE. HE LANDED "AS SMOOTH AS POSSIBLE" BUT ON ROLL OUT THE LEFT MAIN LANDING GEAR COLLAPSED. PILOT COMMUNICATED WITH ATC BY OPERATING RADIOS WITH A 4-AMP BACKUP BATTERY.

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.
