An amateur-built non-aerobatic Arion Lightning, was conducting a flight from Baudette International Airport (KBDE), USA to Roseau Municipal Airport/Rudy Billberg Field (KROX), USA on a VFR flight plan with a planned fly-by of a cottage located on Lake of the Woods, ON with only the pilot onboard. The aircraft conducted a low-level fly-by of the cottage and, once past the cottage, conducted a climbing 60° to 75° bank right turn. During the climbing steep turn, the left wing dropped and the aircraft descended rapidly in a nose-down attitude. The aircraft collided with terrain on an island located 15 NM south of Kenora (CYQK), ON. The pilot received fatal injuries. The aircraft was destroyed and there was no post-impact fire.
