Narrative:

When landing; I neglected to extend landing gear. The causes were: 1) I was in a hurry to land; 2) I did not use a checklist and 3) I did not do a simple gump check. The incident was reported to FAA on-scene and to NTSB. My purpose in submitting this is to emphasize the use of checklists and simple gump checks. That would have prevented this incident.
