Lately, I was in a hangar, the owner of a Globe Swift, probably around 20 000 flight hours ex-airline pilot, thought he had extended his gear and in fact had extended his flaps...Landed on the belly. Had to change the propeller, and changes the engine too (it could have just been checked, but preferred getting a new one...). I thinks it's a 280HP injection! Must have costed a fortune!
