What happened
The FAA’s narrative, in sentence case. The FAA writes it in capitals and removes private details.
Aircraft had just been delivered with an avionics upgrade to a "glass" panel. After a complete briefing on the new panel, pilot took off solo to check the basic operation of the new panel.
On the first landing on runway 23, pilot was busy finding the new engine instruments in scan and inadvertently did not extend the landing gear before attempting to land. Just as he realized the gear was not down, someone on the UNICOM frequency called
"Cessna- gear!" At that time, pilot determined that the safest course of action was a go around. He went around and returned to land immediately on the same runway.
After shutdown, he discovered that the prop tips had contacted the runway and were curled back. There was also damage to an antenna mounted on the belly of the aircraft, and the tail tie down ring had scrape marks. No other damage was noted.
