DRG ARRIVAL, THE PLT EXPERIENCED AN ELECTRICAL PRBLM WITH THE LANDING GEAR & HAD TO USE MANUAL EXTENSION PROCEDURES. HE STATED THAT WHEN HE SELECTED THE FLAPS FOR LANDING, HE HEARD THE MOTOR RUN, BUT DID NOT VISUALLY CHECK THAT THE FLAPS WERE EXTENDED. JUST BEFORE LANDING, AT APRX 20' AGL, THE ACFT 'QUIT FLYING' & LANDED HARD. INITIALLY, THE PLT WAS NOT AWARE OF ANY DAMAGE. WHEN HE GOT OUT OF THE ACFT AFTER THE FLT, HE NOTICED THE FLAPS WERE RETRACTED, BUT SAID IT WAS HIS HABIT TO RETRACT THEM AUTOMATICALLY ON THE ROLL-OUT. A SUBSEQUENT INSPN REVEALED SUBSTANTIAL DAMAGE TO THE RIGHT WING SPAR.
