| Confidence Rating: |  Accident investigation report completed and information captured |
On approach to Goondiwindi, the pilot noticed that the landing gear down light was not illuminated. He checked the visual drive indicator in the cabin floor and the external cowl mirrors which indicated to him that the gear was down. During the landing roll, the gear collapsed and the aircraft came to a halt. A subsequent engineering inspection indicated that the gear was not fully down when the aircraft landed, which had been caused by a seizure of the gear motor.
