Narrative:
The Wabusk Air Piper PA31 aircraft (registration C-GRVW, serial number 31-618) departed a private grass strip with a pilot and passenger on board for a short flight to the Cochrane Airport, Ontario, to pick up another passenger. After departing Cochrane, the pilot flew to Moosonee and conducted a visual flight rules approach for Runway 32. Approximately 1.5 nm from the runway, the pilot selected the landing gear down and confirmed that the landing gear was indicating down and locked. This was also verbally confirmed by the passenger, another company pilot, who was sitting in the right seat. The aircraft landed normally, and the pilot selected flaps up and boost pumps off. The pilot was about to apply brakes to slow down for taxiway Bravo when the gear horn sounded and the right main landing gear collapsed, followed quickly by the collapse of the left main and nose landing gear. The aircraft came to rest approximately 1550 feet from the threshold of Runway 32, just off the right side of the runway. There were no injuries.
