Incident Overview
A pilot was conducting an aerial application of granular herbicide over a rice field. The field was bordered on the west by low voltage wires, with high voltage lines running diagonally across the area. During a pass from west to east, the pilot crossed over the low voltage wires and lowered the aircraft's nose in an attempt to fly under the high voltage lines.
Pilot's Account
According to the pilot, his vision was partially impaired by sunglare reflecting off his goggles. Additionally, his line of sight was obstructed by the top wing of the aircraft. Because of these visibility limitations, the aircraft struck a high voltage wire and subsequently crashed in the rice field.
Aftermath
The aircraft came to rest in the rice field following the collision with the high voltage line. No further details about the pilot or the extent of damage are available from the source.
