Circumstances:
On approach to Flores-Mundo Maya Airport, the crew completed the pre-landing checklist and after the landing gear were selected down, the crew did not receive a down and locked indication. In agreement with ATC, the crew performed two low passes over the airport and ATC confirmed that the landing gear were down and did not notice any abnormalities. After this sequence, the crew decided to land. After touchdown, the right main gear collapsed. The airplane veered off runway and came to rest. All 17 occupants evacuated safely.
