Incorrect configuration involving a Beech Aircraft Corp 58, VH-GJZ, Oakey Aerodrome, Queensland, on 4 November 1996

When the aircraft landed, there was a crosswind from the right at about 10 kts. After a ground roll of about 300 m, the pilot elected to retract the flaps before commencing braking. Because of the crosswind, he was looking ahead of the aircraft to maintain directional control and inadvertently selected the landing gear control to the UP position. The landing gear retracted, and the aircraft slid on its belly for a further 300 m.
