| Confidence Rating: |  Accident investigation report completed and information captured |
The pilot in the retractable-landing-gear-equipped airplane reported that, during the approach, he was distracted by people that were on the runway and believed he “neglected to lower the landing gear.” He added that, during landing, he thought that the propeller contacted turf, and he aborted the landing. The airplane gained altitude, and he turned right, but the airspeed did not increase like he felt that it should. Rather than continue the flight over rising terrain, he extended the landing gear and landed in a field, but the airplane landed hard.
The airplane sustained substantial damage to both wings.
The pilot reported that there were no preaccident mechanical malfunctions or failures with the airplane that would have precluded normal operation.
Probable Cause: The pilot’s failure to extend the landing gear before landing, which resulted in a propeller strike, followed by an aborted landing and a subsequent hard, precautionary landing.
