## Narrative

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

DEPARTED ROCKFORD AIRPORT FOR AN AFTER MAINTENANCE FLIGHT, (THE AIR-CONDITIONING SYSTEM HAD BEEN WORKED ON). DURING LANDING GEAR  UP RETRACTION THE IN TRANSIT LIGHT STAYED ILLUMINATED. THE PILOT REQUESTED TO FLY BY THE TOWER TO CHECK THE LANDING GEAR. THE AIR TRAFFIC CONTROLLER STATED THAT THE LANDING GEAR APPEARED TO BE DOWN. UPON LANDING RUNWAY 07 THOUGH, ALL THREE GEAR COLLAPSED AND THE AIRCRAFT CAME TO REST ON RUNWAY 07. NO INJURIES OR POST FLIGHT FIRE OCCURRED.

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.
