What happened
The FAA’s narrative, in sentence case. The FAA writes it in capitals and removes private details.
Email from pilot concerning incident: on February the 1st about 1130AM I was on a VFR approach into runway 1 at kdri, privacy data omitted went through my checklist and put my gear down and waited for three green lights. As I made my flare the plane started to sink I realized something was wrong with my gear but it was too late I immediately pulled my throttles all the way back. There was a witness that watched the whole thing and he stated that my gear was down and then as I crossed the threshold only the nose doors were open. We think there was a possible malfunction in the gear switch. The damage consist of the front gear doors, the inboard flaps, and the props. If you need any other info just let me know.
