SIAI-Marchetti SF-260D, N405FD
Summary:
Oaksey Park Airfield is located 1 nm to the south-east of the Kemble ATZ. It has two runways: 04/22 and 17/35. Runway 17 is normally restricted to takeoffs only. 皇冠体育app pilot decided to land on Runway 17 after a previous discussion about its use with the airfield owner. His choice of runway was based on the wind at Halfpenny Green (the departure airfield), which was 170掳 at 12 kt. 皇冠体育app pilot had not landed on this runway before and he flew a tight circuit to avoid the Kemble ATZ. An Air/Ground radio service is normally provided at Oaksey Park but was not available at the time. He selected the landing gear down when late downwind and observed a red light, which indicates that the gear is in transit, but did not check for 鈥渢hree greens鈥�. 皇冠体育app aircraft landed gear-up on the grass runway. 皇冠体育app pilot subsequently found that the circuit breaker for the landing gear had tripped.
