Narrative:
On September 5, 2002, at 11:30 mountain daylight time, a Beech D95A, N2705T, piloted by a private pilot receiving dual instruction, was substantially damaged during landing at Jefferson County Airport (BJC), Broomfield, Colorado, when the landing gear was retracted just after touchdown. Visual meteorological conditions prevailed at the time of the accident. No flight plan had been filed for the instructional flight being conducted under the provisions of Title 14 CFR Part 91. The dual student pilot and flight instructor received no injuries. An FAA inspector examined the airplane at BJC. The airplane showed damage to both engine nacelles, the nose bowl, the landing gear doors, and the propellers. The examination also showed that both inboard wing ribs were bent. The probable cause determined by the NTSB stated the dual student pilot's inadvertent retraction of the landing gear. Contributing factors included the dual student's lack of familiarity with the airplane, and inadequate supervision by the flight instructor.
