Prior to landing, the pilot attempted to lower the landing gear with the gear switch in the cockpit. The "gear would not extend down with [the] switch, therefore, I used the hand pump and it extended down 25 percent were it stopped." The pilot contacted a mechanic via cell phone and the mechanic advised him the problem could not be fixed while flying. The pilot landed the airplane with the landing gear partially retracted. A Federal Aviation Administration inspector examined the airplane and landing gear system. No anomalies were noted with the landing gear system. The reason for the occurrence was not determined.
Probable Cause: The failure of the landing gear to extend for undetermined reasons.
