Cessna 210D Centurion, G-OWAN

Summary:

The aircraft had taken off from a farm strip but returned when oil was seen to be leaking from the engine compartment and onto the left side of the windscreen. On short finals, the pilot handling in the left seat asked the pilot in the right seat to perform the landing because his visibility was impaired. In so doing, they omitted to extend the landing gear and the aircraft landed wheels-up.
