Narrative:

On aug/thu/92 at XA42 pm or xf 42Z, I encountered a gear- up landing at the downtown airport in kansas city -- mkc. The sky conditions were clear wind 160 at 8 and active runway 19 was in use. I was in the pattern doing touch-and-goes. The gear handle was in a down position, the green light exhibited. No interior cabin warning horn sounded. 2 passenger were aboard. After touchdown, the plane stopped in a straight formation on the runway. No injuries occurred and there was no fire aboard. No structural damage to the hull was incurred. The next morning, on aug/fri/92, a report was given to FSDO in kansas city.
