From the FAA’s Accident/Incident Data System (AIDS), through its Aviation Safety Information Portal, as reported. The NTSB investigates accidents separately, and its record of an accident is the fuller one. The aircraft is matched to the registry 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.
What happened
The FAA’s narrative, in sentence case. The FAA writes it in capitals and removes private details.
The pilot did not get a green down and lock light for the landing gear when it was placed in the down position. Nor did he recieve a warning horn when the throttle was retarded for landing. The pilot also did not follow the printed emergency procedures as stated in the Cessna POH. Failure to do so appears to have prevented the landing gear from staying in the locked or 'over-center' position.
