PLT OF C210; INEXPERIENCED IN FIXED WING ACFT; FAILS TO EXTEND GEAR FOR LNDG. EXECUTES GAR ATTEMPT TOO LATE TO AVOID MOMENTARY CONTACT OF PROP BLADES AND LOWER FUSELAGE.

Narrative

I WAS PLTING THE ACFT FOR A PART 135 CARGO OP; REPOSITIONING THE ACFT EMPTY UNDER PART 91. WHILE CONDUCTING A VISUAL APCH; I FAILED TO PROPERLY FOLLOW FLT PROCS (NAMELY THE 'TBGUMPS' CHK). I AM A RELATIVELY LOW-TIME FIXED-WING PLT (APPROX 200 HRS); MOST OF MY FLT TIME IS IN HELIS. THERE WAS A XWIND (070 DEGS AT 11 KTS); AND I WAS TOO FOCUSED ON EXECUTING THE LNDG PROPERLY. BECAUSE OF MY FAILURE TO PUT THE LNDG GEAR DOWN; CHK THAT IT WAS DOWN; AND THE FACT THAT I CARRIED PWR OVER THE THRESHOLD FOR THE XWIND; I ENDED UP INITIATING ROTATION FOR THE LNDG FLARE OVER THE NUMBERS WITHOUT REALIZING THAT I WAS GEAR UP. IT WAS NOT UNTIL I PULLED THE PWR BACK DURING ROTATION THAT THE GEAR HORN SOUNDED. AS SOON AS I RECOGNIZED THE HORN AND ITS SIGNIFICANCE; I REACTED BY COMING IN WITH FULL THROTTLE AND PULLING THE YOKE BACK. AS I DID SO; I HEARD THE ACFT CONTACT THE RWY BRIEFLY BEFORE CLBING BACK UP TO A HT OF APPROX 50 FT AGL. ONCE THERE; I LEVELED OFF; PUT THE GEAR DOWN; VERIFIED THAT IT WAS DOWN; PULLED THE PWR BACK AND LANDED WITHOUT FURTHER PROBS. I EXITED THE RWY AT TXWY D; TAXIED TO PARKING AND SHUT DOWN. UP TO THAT POINT I HAD HOPES THAT I HAD NOT DAMAGED THE PROP; SINCE THE ENG SEEMED TO BE RUNNING SMOOTHLY AND DEVELOPING NORMAL PWR WITHOUT VIBRATION FROM THE NOSE. UPON SHUTDOWN; I FOUND THAT THE TIPS OF ALL 3 BLADES OF THE HARTZELL PROP WERE BENT BACK 90 DEGS APPROX 1-2 INCHES FROM THEIR ENDS. I IMMEDIATELY CONTACTED COMPANY DISPATCH AND MAINT AND INFORMED THEM OF THE SITUATION. I EXAMINED THE ACFT AND FOUND THAT APART FROM THE DAMAGE TO THE PROP; THERE WAS CONTACT DAMAGE (SCRAPING) ON THE FRAME RIVETS JUST AFT OF THE WHEEL WELLS; AS WELL AS ON THE BELLY ANTENNA AND THE AFT TIE-DOWN. AFTER RPTING THE EVENT TO THE COMPANY; I SECURED THE DAMAGED ACFT; PREFLTED ANOTHER COMPANY ACFT WHICH WAS THERE; LOADED CARGO AND DEPARTED TO COMPLETE REST OF MY ASSIGNED RUN FOR THE NIGHT.
