What happened
The FAA’s narrative, in sentence case. The FAA writes it in capitals and removes private details.
privacy data omitted Stated that he was on a stabilized approach at night, during VMC, was cleared to land on runway 06 at teb and believed he put the gear down with one notch flaps. He went on to say that during the landing flare he heard a sound like a prop clicking on the ground. He immediately added power and commenced a go-around. During the initial climbout he instinctively looked at the gear and believed that the handle was down, but with no safe or unsafe light indications of any kind. When queried that if he had no lights whatsoever during the go-around, what did he have when he extended the gear, he could not recall if he had 3 green. He then cycled the gear once, got 3 green, and accomplished an uneventful landing. During post-flight inspection, he observed the outboard few inches of all 3 left prop blades bent approximately 90 deg.
