Narrative:
On 24 April 2021, an Artic Group - Rosavia Antonov An-3 performing a parachute training flight for the Ukrainian military experienced a severe drop in oil pressure while on approach to Kiev-South Airfield. As a result of loss of oil pressure, the aircraft was feathered, and made an emergency landing approximately 1km from the airfield itself.

Upon investigation, it was found that the loss of oil pressure occurred as a result of an electrical failure with the engines anti-icing system. In particular, a number of solder joints had failed.
