Narrative:The pilot confirmed that the landing gear had been extended and all gear down lights were illuminated prior to landing. After the initial touchdown, the pilot heard a "thump" and the gear warning signal activated. At the same time, the gear down lights went out. A post-flight examination revealed that both the main landing gear drag braces had broken, allowing the main gear legs to collapse outwards, which prevented the aircraft from resting fully on the runway. Later, a more detailed heavy landing inspection revealed minor rib damage in the area of the landing gear attach points on the left side.
