Narrative:
No problem on a VFR photo flight that took us from bff over ibm over lbf, then into lnk. The descent was normal. I was cleared to land on runway 14. The first 15 degrees of flaps were brought out at 150 KTS on about a 5 mi right base. The gear was selected down on about a 2 mi right base at 120 KTS. I heard 3 thumps as the gear locked down. I saw 3 green lights. Full flaps were brought down at 120 KTS and on a 1 mi final the VASI was red over white. I was slowly bringing the power back from 20' mp. The mixtures were rich. The propellers were at 2200 RPM. The flare out was normal with no gear horn. The left main touched first. Then the right wing started to drop. I added power to go around, but could not stop the right wing from contacting the runway. We hit the runway and slid off the right side into the grass and went about 150', turned 180 degrees and stopped. After the aircraft stopped, I secured the aircraft and the passenger and I evacked the aircraft. Neither of us were hurt. The crash people arrived and I made no statements to anyone but the tower, who asked my name, address and certificate #.

Narrative: NO PROB ON A VFR PHOTO FLT THAT TOOK US FROM BFF OVER IBM OVER LBF, THEN INTO LNK. THE DSNT WAS NORMAL. I WAS CLRED TO LAND ON RWY 14. THE FIRST 15 DEGS OF FLAPS WERE BROUGHT OUT AT 150 KTS ON ABOUT A 5 MI RIGHT BASE. THE GEAR WAS SELECTED DOWN ON ABOUT A 2 MI RIGHT BASE AT 120 KTS. I HEARD 3 THUMPS AS THE GEAR LOCKED DOWN.

THE PROPS WERE AT 2200 RPM. THE FLARE OUT WAS NORMAL WITH NO GEAR HORN. THE LEFT MAIN TOUCHED FIRST. THEN THE RIGHT WING STARTED TO DROP. I ADDED PWR TO GO AROUND, BUT COULD NOT STOP THE RIGHT WING FROM CONTACTING THE RWY. WE HIT THE RWY AND SLID OFF THE RIGHT SIDE INTO THE GRASS AND WENT ABOUT 150', TURNED 180 DEGS AND STOPPED. AFTER THE ACFT STOPPED, I SECURED THE ACFT AND THE PAX AND I EVACKED THE ACFT. NEITHER OF US WERE HURT. THE CRASH PEOPLE ARRIVED AND I MADE NO STATEMENTS TO ANYONE BUT THE TWR, WHO ASKED MY NAME, ADDRESS AND CERTIFICATE #.
