Narrative:
After landing, on rollout, nosewheel came up. I would normally put the flaps up while on rollout. I may have hit the gear switch. Corrective actions would be not to move flaps until after pull off runway. Callback conversation with reporter revealed the following information: reporter said he had no particular reason for not filling out the ASRS form completely. He landed at X47, bunnell, fl. He was flying a rockwell 112TC aircraft. He admitted that he simply moved the wrong lever. He said that the gear and flap switches are separated by the throttle quadrant and that they have differing tactile feel. The flap lever is shaped like a FLIP and the gear is shaped like a wheel.
