The aircraft was flared normally, but was not held off. It descended onto the runway in a level attitude and touched down on all three wheels simultaneously. The nose continued to lower onto the runway until the propeller struck the ground. The operator subsequently reported that the lugs on the nose gear upper housing, which retain the hinge pin for the lower fork assembly, had failed. The nose wheel, complete with its fork assembly, had separated from the nose leg.
