## Narrative

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

(-23) THE INSTRUCTOR AND STUDENT OF N41748 ATTEMPTED TO EXTEND THE LANDING GEAR DURING A MANEUVER, BUT ONLY RECEIVED TWO OUT OF THREE GEAR DOWN AND LOCKED INDICATORS WITH THE NOSE INDICATION UNSAFE.  THE AIRCRAFT RETURNED TO THE KENOSHA AIRPORT AND MADE SEVERAL LOW PASSES PAST THE TOWER HOPING THE TOWER WOULD CONFIRM THE NOSE GEAR IS DOWN.  THE TOWER CONTROLLER COULD NOT CONFIRM THE STATUS OF THE GEAR AND THE AIRCRAFT DEPARTED TO THE SOUTHWEST TO CONTINUE TROUBLE SHOOTING.  MANEUVERS FAILED TO CORRECT THE GEAR NOT LOCKED INDICATION AND THE AIRCRAFT RETURNED TO KENOSHA AIRPORT AND LANDED WITH THE TWO MAIN GEARS INDICATING DOWN AND LOCKED WHILE THE NOSE GEAR INDICATED UNSAFE.  AFTER TOUCH DOWN, THE AIRCRAFT WAS SLOWED TO APPROXIMATELY FIVE KNOTS WHEN THE NOSE GEAR COLLAPSED.  THE CREW EXITED THE AIRCRAFT WITHOUT INJURY.

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.
