## Narrative

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

AIRCRAFT EXPERIENCED ELECTRICAL POWER FAILURE DURING CRUISE-LEVEL FLIGHT. PILOT DIVERTED TO JWN. PILOT MOVED THE GEAR SWITCH TO GEAR DOWN, THE LANDING GEAR DID NOT MOVE. PILOT THEN READ EMERGENCY LANDING PROCEDURES WITH NO ELECTRICAL POWER, ACCESSED MANUAL GEAR EXTENSION LEVER AND MANIPULATED LEVER TO THE POINT HE COULD NOT MOVE IT ANY FURTHER. PILOT SPOKE WITH ATC ON HIS PHONE, FLEW BY FOR THEIR VISUAL CONFIRMATION THAT THE GEAR DID INDEED APPEAR TO BE EXTENDED. PILOT THEN LANDED THE AIRCRAFT, GEAR COLLAPSED (NOSE AND BOTH MAINS) UPON TOUCHDOWN.

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.
