The pilot of the multiengine airplane reported that he had completed six touch-and-go landings uneventfully. During approach for the seventh landing, he was distracted by a low fuel caution light illuminating in the cockpit, and other traffic in the area. The pilot forgot to extend the landing gear and the airplane landed on the runway with the landing gear retracted. The airplane came to rest upright on the runway and postaccident examination of it revealed substantial damage to the fuselage stringers. The pilot further reported that there were no preimpact mechanical malfunctions with the airplane.
Probable Cause: The pilot's failure to extend the landing gear prior to landing.
