SPRINGFIELD, Mo. -- People driving by Downtown Airport along East Division Monday saw an odd sight.   A small twin engine plane apparently made a landing without its landing gear.  The plane's propellers were also damaged.  No one was around when the KOLR10/KOZL News crew arrived in the afternoon, and a check of the Springfield Police Department shows no accident report.  The plane is a 1965 Piper PA30, registered out of Jacksonville Beach, Florida.
