He said that the airplane skidded across the ramp and collided with a parked airplane, a hangar, and an embankment. During the accident sequence, the airplane's main landing gear collapsed, resulting in substantial damage to the lower fuselage and right wing. Examination did not reveal any preimpact mechanical malfunctions or failures that would have precluded normal operation. Additionally, the pilot did not report any such malfunctions or failures.
