I am a new member to this forum, having just joined today. My Mooney-almost-gear-up-landing happened on my check out flight with the instructor when I went to pick up the plane. I only had about 100 hours of total time and was completely lost while flying the plane. I was coming over the fence and in the flare when the instructor said "Go around." At least I knew with that command meant and I added full power. He told me later that we did not put the gear down. I am one of those who could easily see myself getting distracted and landing with a very short rollout. To try and avoid this, I do at least two BC Gump checks, One on downwind or When I intercept the glideslope, And the other on short final. As I come over the fence I look at the light and say "got a green good to land" Last week I was flying into Roanoke, my base Airport, and while on final I was asked to switch to a different runway because the plane that landed before me thought a piece of equipment fell off. Once I landed I realized I had never gone through my second Gump check. So, at the end of the day, I have never had a gear at landing only by the grace of God.
