Narrative:

On oct/tue/01 I was flying from owensboro airport to paducah airport. The WX in the vicinity and along the route of flight was calling for severe thunderstorms around west kentucky, southern ohio, and southern indiana. WX conditions at paducah was 2000 ft scattered, 3500 ft overcast. Wind was out of the southwest at 18 KTS and gusting 26 KTS. It was a 45 min flight. In that flight I had 2 electric failures. First was for 3 mins and second was for 5 mins. Aprox 25 miles northeast of the airport, mem center advised me that I was number two and assigned me an altitude of 2500 ft. When I was 5 mi away from the airport I reported that I had the airport in sight, but center asked me to stand by and told me he will hand me to tower shortly. When I was 2 mi away, I called center to make sure he didn't forget about me. When center gave me a clearance to change to tower frequency, I was aprox 1.5 mi away from the runway. At that moment my radio power start blinking and I missed a radio call from tower 1 or 2 times. I had the same problems a few days ago. Finally the landing gear about 1/4 to 1/2 mi away from runway and heard the landing gear power pack go off. However it was a really short time so I didn't have a chance to check for a landing gear green light. I thought it was smooth landing. I felt the left gear touch the ground, and then I noticed that the aircraft started tilting to the right. My first reaction was to apply left aileron and rudder to correct for what I thought was drift. After 1 or 2 seconds, I heard a banging sound with breaking noise from aircraft. At that instant, I realized that my right main gear may not have been down. So I added full power to initiate a go around, but by that time the aircraft was badly damaged. So I reduced throttle to idle and cut the mixture. I tried to stabilize the aircraft as much as possible. The aircraft slid down the runway and came to rest on the grass next to the runway.

Title: A C210 PLT EXPERIENCED LNDG GEAR COLLAPSE ON LNDG.

Narrative: ON OCT/TUE/01 I WAS FLYING FROM OWENSBORO ARPT TO PADUCAH ARPT. THE WX IN THE VICINITY AND ALONG THE ROUTE OF FLT WAS CALLING FOR SEVERE TSTMS AROUND WEST KENTUCKY, SOUTHERN OHIO, AND SOUTHERN INDIANA. WX CONDITIONS AT PADUCAH WAS 2000 FT SCATTERED, 3500 FT OVERCAST. WIND WAS OUT OF THE SOUTHWEST AT 18 KTS AND GUSTING 26 KTS. IT WAS A 45 MIN FLT. IN THAT FLT I HAD 2 ELECTRIC FAILURES. FIRST WAS FOR 3 MINS AND SECOND WAS FOR 5 MINS. APROX 25 MILES NE OF THE ARPT, MEM CENTER ADVISED ME THAT I WAS NUMBER TWO AND ASSIGNED ME AN ALT OF 2500 FT. WHEN I WAS 5 MI AWAY FROM THE ARPT I RPTED THAT I HAD THE ARPT IN SIGHT, BUT CENTER ASKED ME TO STAND BY AND TOLD ME HE WILL HAND ME TO TWR SHORTLY. WHEN I WAS 2 MI AWAY, I CALLED CENTER TO MAKE SURE HE DIDN'T FORGET ABOUT ME. WHEN CENTER GAVE ME A CLRNC TO CHANGE TO TWR FREQ, I WAS APROX 1.5 MI AWAY FROM THE RWY. AT THAT MOMENT MY RADIO PWR START BLINKING AND I MISSED A RADIO CALL FROM TWR 1 OR 2 TIMES. I HAD THE SAME PROBS A FEW DAYS AGO. FINALLY THE LANDING GEAR ABOUT 1/4 TO 1/2 MI AWAY FROM RWY AND HEARD THE LANDING GEAR PWR PACK GO OFF. HOWEVER IT WAS A REALLY SHORT TIME SO I DIDN'T HAVE A CHANCE TO CHECK FOR A LNDG GEAR GREEN LIGHT. I THOUGHT IT WAS SMOOTH LNDG. I FELT THE LEFT GEAR TOUCH THE GND, AND THEN I NOTICED THAT THE ACFT STARTED TILTING TO THE RIGHT. MY FIRST REACTION WAS TO APPLY LEFT AILERON AND RUDDER TO CORRECT FOR WHAT I THOUGHT WAS DRIFT. AFTER 1 OR 2 SECS, I HEARD A BANGING SOUND WITH BREAKING NOISE FROM ACFT. AT THAT INSTANT, I REALIZED THAT MY RIGHT MAIN GEAR MAY NOT HAVE BEEN DOWN. SO I ADDED FULL PWR TO INITIATE A GAR, BUT BY THAT TIME THE ACFT WAS BADLY DAMAGED. SO I REDUCED THROTTLE TO IDLE AND CUT THE MIXTURE. I TRIED TO STABILIZE THE ACFT AS MUCH AS POSSIBLE. THE ACFT SLID DOWN THE RWY AND CAME TO REST ON THE GRASS NEXT TO THE RWY.
