Read the full NTSB narrative

The pilot reported that he verified that he had a three green indication for the landing gear prior to touch down. During the landing roll, and having decelerated to about 10 miles per hour, the right main landing gear began to collapse. As the aircraft departed the right side of the runway, it impacted a runway light. The nose gear collapsed and the propeller struck the ground. During a post-accident inspection of the landing gear system, no evidence of a mechanical failure or malfunction was found.
