Narrative
On June 16, 2013, about 1140 Pacific daylight time (PDT), a Cessna T210L, N94086, landed gear-up at Fresno Yosemite International Airport, Fresno,
California. The owner/pilot was operating the airplane under the provisions of 14 Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) Part 91. The private pilot and one
passenger were not injured; the airplane sustained substantial damage. The local personal flight departed Fowler, California. Visual meteorological conditions
prevailed, and no flight plan had been filed.
The pilot reported that he was unable to fully retract the landing gear after takeoff. He was unable to correct the situation and attempted to manually extend the
landing gear. That too was unsuccessful and he elected to land with the nose gear partially extended and the main gear retracted. During the landing, the
airplane sustained substantial damage to the left wing, left aileron, left horizontal stabilizer, and elevator.
The airplane was recovered for further examination.
