Narrative:

Approach to landing -- everything normal. Wind at the time 350- 15 landing runway 35 cessna 310. As the airplane landed, nose gear collapsed, causing propeller strikes on both engines. Airplane slid about 1000 ft before coming to a stop on a portion of the nose wheel. The other portion of the nose wheel was located on the numbers at the end of the runway. Appeared to have 'fallen off,' possibly 'broken off.' landing was not the smoothest, but was not bad. Airport manager and crew jacked the nose up and removed the airplane from the runway! Nosewheel collapse was totally unexpected and happened very quickly. Note: received gear down indication (green light) and visually checked on turn from base to final (mirror on left tip tank).
