- Aircraft: Cessna 510 Citation Mustang

A Cessna 510 Citation Mustang was on a single pilot type rating checkride with an examiner at Daytona Beach when the pilot flew a no flap landing with the landing gear still retracted. The gear warning horn did not sound because flaps were not extended, and the airplane slid on its belly. Both occupants were unhurt and the NTSB cited the pilot's failure to lower the gear, with the examiner's failure to check it contributing.
