Narrative:On September 23, 2023, about 1045 central daylight time, a Piper PA-28RT-201 airplane, N2242N, sustained substantial damage when it was involved in an accident near Chesterfield, Missouri. The pilot and three passengers were not injured. The airplane was operated as a Title 14 Code of Federal Regulations Part 91 personal flight.
According to the pilot, he conducted an uneventful local flight just prior to the accident flight. During the accident flight, while conducting a visual traffic pattern approach to the runway, the pilot verified three green landing gear extended annunciator lights and proceeded to land the airplane. After a normal touchdown, he felt that the right wing was low, and he began to correct the attitude when the right wing continued to drop and scrape the runway. The airplane pulled to the right, exited the runway, spun slowly to the right, and came to rest upright. Postaccident examination of the airplane revealed the right main and nose landing gears collapsed, and the outboard right wing sustained substantial damage.
The airplane was retained for further examination.
