The pilot and the passenger were engaged on a private flight from Wonderboom Aerodrome to Thabazimbi Aerodrome. The pilot reported that he had departed from Wonderboom Aerodrome at approximately 0630Z under special VFR conditions. During touchdown, the pilot reported a loud scratching noise and the voice warning system came on, stating 'check undercarriage'?. The pilot immediately realised that the undercarriage was not down. The aircraft skidded for approximately 130 metres in a straight line before coming to a standstill. The investigation, which included an on-site investigation and retraction tests at the AMO facility, revealed no anomalies on the undercarriage system. Probable Cause The pilot failed to select the undercarriage down during landing which resulted in the aircraft landing with its wheels up.
