What happened
The FAA’s narrative, in sentence case. The FAA writes it in capitals and removes private details.
The pilot departed kcnu with no takeoff or enroute anomalies. The airplane entered instrument meteorological conditions while descending and receiving radar vectors for a visual approach into I23 airport.
Upon descent pilot broke out of clouds around 3000 feet into marginal VFR conditions.
At approximately 5 mile final for runway 5, the airspeed indicator dropped to an indication of zero. Pilot saw there was ice on leading edge of wings. No other pitot static instruments were malfunctioning.
At approximately 2 mile final the landing gear was extended. Warning horns sounded. Pilot was unsure if he had 3 down and locked. He did not cycle the gear nor try to trouble shoot.
The pilot saw the airport. He chose to not declare an emergency, and to land.
The airplane landed with only the left and nose gear locked down. The airplane departed the paved surface on the landing roll out.
The right gear failed to come down during the landing. The landing gear pump control 25 amp circuit breaker was discovered popped. The mechanic swung the gear several times and was not able to repeat the failure.
