Narrative:
Around 13 local time, two similar ultra light aircraft, OH-U468 and OH-U537 were landing on the lake ice, when OH-U468 struck a power line, the pilot being blinded by frontal sunshine. Wind 3 m/s, clear sky, visibility 20 km. The propeller did not hit the wires, and the plane landed normally. There was damage on the windshield. No injuries. Electricity was cut off for 100 homes.
