NTSB Factual Report

According to the pilot, he was distracted by what he thought was an aircraft radio failure, his inability to immediately locate the wind sock, and an air show in progress at the destination airport. He stated that he did not go through his normal GUMPS check, forgot to lower the landing gear and landed wheels up. There was damage to the left wing and flap, but the scraping on the bottom of the fuselage exposed and substantially damaged several bulkheads.

NTSB Probable Cause

The pilot's failure to lower the landing gear. Contributing factors were the pilot's attention being diverted, and his failure to use the BEFORE LANDING checklist.
