Narrative:
I entered left downwind runway 20 at 3a1 after dropping skydivers. I pressed the landing gear lever down. I am fairly sure I observed 3 green gear down lights. On final, I checked that the gear down lever was down. During the flare, I noticed the yellow gear light was on for the nose only. I heard a scrapping noise, then the propellers striking the ground. After shutting engines down, I observed 3 yellow gear lights before I turned the master electrical switch off. The aircraft came to a stop with nose gear door open and main gear in the gear wells.
