The pilot reported the flight was normal until the touchdown at the destination airport. According to him, 'the wheels were up,' and he landed on the belly. He further said all indications were that he, 'did not switch the wheels down.' The pilot did not give any indication that at anytime during the approach, he did or did not use a checklist. The pilot stated he thought he put the landing gear down; when asked if he used a checklist the pilot said he had a checklist in front of him but he, 'must have missed it.' The pilot stated during his descent he noticed his airspeed was higher than normal, and he continued the approach to landing until the belly of the airplane came in contact with the ground.
Probable Cause: The pilot's failure to use a checklist and ensure that the landing gear was down and locked during approach to landing.
