That's everything on file so far — TailWiki checks the FAA registry daily and adds new entries as N3733D's record changes.
The flight instructor reported that during the instructional flight accomplishing takeoffs and landings, during the seventh landing, the landing checklist was called, but due to the "wind effects", the landing gear was not extended. During the approach, the airplane was configured with the left engine operating normally while the right engine was operating to simulate zero thrust. The airplane touched down on the runway centerline with the landing gear retracted. The airplane slid to the left, exited the runway, and impacted a landing light fixture. The lower fuselage longerons were substantially damaged.
The flight instructor reported that there were no preaccident mechanical failures or malfunctions with the airplane that would have precluded normal operation.
