Factual narrative

THE PILOT REPORTED THAT BEFORE LANDING, HE EXTENDED THE LANDING GEAR AND OBSERVED A SAFE DOWN AND LOCKED INDICATION. HE STATED THAT AS HE APPLIED BRAKES AT ABOUT 45 KTS, THE GEAR WARNING HORN SOUNDED AND THE GEAR COLLAPSED. ALSO, HE POSITIVELY STATED THAT THE GEAR HANDLE HAD REMAINED IN THE DOWN POSITION AND HE DID NOT INADVERTENTLY RAISE IT. AN EXAMINATION OF THE LANDING GEAR SYSTEM REVEALED NO PRE-ACCIDENT FAILURES.
