Narrative:

During a pleasure flight form fxe to 3x7, I found on arrival there that the landing gear would not come down. Using the usual emergency procedures, I attempted to extend the gear, including pulling up abruptly, to no avail. The small aircraft was landed at 3x7 with gear up. Damage consisted of propeller tips bent back and possible hub damage. There was 1 soul on board, no injuries. No damage to hull or flying surfaces.
