Read the full NTSB narrative
The commercial pilot was seated in the left seat and conducting a familiarization flight in the airplane. After completing airwork, he returned to the airport and conducted a circling approach, then entered the airport traffic pattern. The right seat pilot read the before landing checklist, and the pilot performed the items accordingly. He stated that, after extending the landing gear, he noted three green lights, indicating that the landing gear were extended and locked. Upon touchdown, the right main landing gear collapsed. The airplane veered off the runway and into a grass area. Postaccident examination of the airplane revealed that the right main landing gear actuator assembly had numerous bent parts and was broken out of its mounting structure. The rigging for the landing gear system could not be checked, nor could functional gear swing test be performed due to damage sustained in the accident. No further testing was conducted. The reason for the landing gear collapse could not be determined.
