Read the full NTSB narrative
The pilot informed the controller after takeoff that he had an unsafe landing gear light on initial climb out. He departed the airport traffic area to conduct the abnormal emergency procedures which were uneventful. The pilot requested to fly by the tower to see if the landing gear was down. The controller informed the pilot during the fly by that the landing gear appeared to be down. The pilot entered the traffic pattern for a visual approach to runway 16L. On touchdown the left and right main landing gear collapsed. Examination of the airplane and the landing gear system revealed no deficiencies.
