The gear of the aircraft detached soon after take-off from Ninoy Aquino International Airport - RPLL. The pilot decided to make an emergency landing back to the airport, where he landed with one gear.
Nobody was injured.
The Aircraft Accident Investigation and Inquiry Board determined that the probable cause of this accident was:
Primary Cause Factor
Failure of the RH MLG axle cone bearing. (Material Factor). The disintegration of the right main landing gear axle cone bearing caused the right wheel to be freed from its mounting and eventually fall off as the landing gears were retracted.
Contributory Cause Factors
a. Poor quality control at maintenance inspection at the AMO Level. Human Factor, Maintenance. The 100 hrs, 1000 hrs, annual inspection at the AMO level during the 12, 000 hour aircraft time which include the removal/ repacking of the cone bearings as outlined in the Beech Aircraft Maintenance Manual was not adequately performed including possible replacement of condition items.
b. Inadequate pre-flight and post-flight inspection conducted by the maintenance personnel and the pilots of C.M. Aero Services, Inc. Human Factor. Maintenance. The collective failure to notice any unusual movement of the right wheel could be traced to the non-adherence to checklist procedures
