Narrative:

With landing gear down on approach, I touched the main gear down then set my nose gear softly to the ground. After about 1 or 2 seconds, the nose gear on my small aircraft collapsed with a propeller strike. It slid on the nose and mains to a stop on the strip. I had partial flaps in upon stopping and my mains had retracted about halfway.
