A United Executive Jet Super King Air 200 on a positioning flight from Saint Louis landed hard at Vichy-Rolla National, Missouri, on a dark, foggy night. The runway and airport were covered with smooth ice and the crew lost depth perception when the landing lights came on during a VOR approach. All four occupants escaped uninjured, but the wing spar, engine mount and propeller were damaged.
