Aeroflot accidents and incidents in the 1950s

Summary

Following is a list of accidents and incidents Aeroflot experienced in the 1950s. The deadliest event the Soviet Union's flag carrier went through in the decade occurred in October 1958 (1958-10), when a Tupolev Tu-104 crashed en route to Sverdlovsk, then located in the Russian SSR, killing all 80 occupants on board.[1] In terms of fatalities, the accident ranks as the eighth worst accident involving a Tu-104, as of July 2016.[2] Another aircraft of the type was involved in the second deadliest accident the airline experienced in the decade, this time in August 1958 (1958-08), when 64 people were killed when the aircraft crashed near Chita after entering an updraft. The Tu-104's tail was modified and the service ceiling lowered in the wake of these two accidents.

The number of recorded fatalities aboard Aeroflot aircraft during the decade rose to 1059; likewise, 119 of its aircraft were written off in accidents or incidents, split into one Antonov An-10, 12 Antonov An-2s, two Avia 14Ps, 29 Ilyushin Il-12s, 15 Ilyushin Il-14s, one Ilyushin Il-18, 54 Lisunov Li-2s, 3 TS-62s, and 2 Tupolev Tu-104s. Most of the fatal accidents took place within the borders of the Soviet Union.

Certain Western media accounts have speculated that the Soviet government was reluctant publicly to admit the occurrence of such events. The true number of accidents, they suggest, might have been higher, as fatal events would have only been admitted when there were foreigners aboard the crashed aircraft, the accident took place in a foreign country, or they reached the news for some reason.[3][4] However, since the dissolution of the USSR, no evidence of significant numbers of unreported serious accidents has emerged, in any of its then-constituent republics.

Date Location Aircraft Tail number Airline division Aircraft damage Fatalities Description Refs
7 April 1950  Kiev Li-2 CCCP-Л4411 Ukraine W/O 0/5 Force-landed due to fuel exhaustion following repeated attempts to land at Zhuliany Airport in bad weather. The aircraft was completing a Kharkiv–Kiev passenger service. [5]
17 April 1950  Vitim TS-62 CCCP-Л862 East Siberia W/O 10/20 Five minutes into the flight, the left engine began to run rough, and later caught fire. The fire spread into the fuselage through the heating system. At 2,000 m (6,600 ft) the burning engine fell off, but the aircraft continued to lose altitude. At 300–400 metres (980–1,310 ft), the crew were able to pull out of the dive and make a forced landing 29 km (18 mi) southwest of Vitim. Two minutes after landing, a fuel tank exploded and the aircraft burned out. The aircraft was operating an Irkutsk-Olekminsk-Kirensk-Yakutsk passenger service as Flight 543. [6]
19 July 1950  Tbilisi Airport Il-12P CCCP-Л1340 Georgia W/O 4/11 The aircraft was operating a training flight; along with the five crew were six unauthorized passengers. The pilot deviated from both the approach pattern and glide scope and the aircraft hit the top of a 175 m (574 ft) hill that was not on the map. [7]
30 July 1950  Karaganda Il-12P CCCP-Л1803 Kazakhstan W/O 25/25 Crashed on approach to Karaganda Airport. Six minutes after takeoff from Karaganda the crew radioed that the number one engine had failed and that they were returning to the airport. While maneuvering to return to the airport, the crew had to change course due to a tall building in the area and overshot the center of the runway. The crew attempted to turn for the final approach, but the aircraft lost speed when the pilot turned left (towards the failed engine) while lowering the landing gear at the same time. Control was lost and the aircraft spiraled down from an altitude of some 50–70 m (160–230 ft) and crashed. The aircraft was operating a domestic scheduled Alma-Ata–Moscow service with several stops. The day before at Alma-Ata the aircraft suffered unexplained problems with the number one engine during a test flight, but the crew did not report the problem. [8]
11 August 1950  Sverdlovsk Il-12P CCCP-Л1706 Moscow W/O 2/27 Struck a tree and crashed while on approach to Sverdlovsk in fog while flying too low. The aircraft was operating a Khabarovsk–Omsk–Sverdlovsk–Moscow passenger service as Flight 8. [9]
9 November 1950  Turukhansk TS-62 CCCP-Л1098 Krasnoyarsk W/O 2/12 While en route to Dudinka, the crew flew into poor weather. Unable to locate Dudinka, the crew decided to return to Turukhansk. On the way back ice formed on the wings. When the landing gear was lowered, the aircraft lost speed and altitude. The aircraft then stalled and crashed in open woodland 2 km (1.2 mi) northeast of Turukhansk Airport. The aircraft was operating a domestic scheduled Krasnoyarsk-Turukhansk-Dudinka passenger service. [10]
27 December 1950  Mynzhilki Li-2 CCCP-Л4003 Uzbekistan W/O 8/8 The aircraft was operating an aerial photography training flight. After a stop at Dzhusaly the aircraft then flew for Turkestan, although the crew were unaware that strong winds had pushed the aircraft off course by 72 km (45 mi). The aircraft then crashed into Mount Mynzhilgi in the Karatau range at 2,050 m (6,730 ft), 126 m (413 ft) from the top. [11]
9 January 1951  Black Sea off Tuapse Il-12P CCCP-Л1811 Moscow W/O 8/8 The aircraft was completing a domestic scheduled Moscow-Krasnodar-Sochi passenger service. While descending over the Black Sea for Sochi, the aircraft was struck by lightning at 900 m (3,000 ft). The left rear fuel tank exploded, starting a fire. The crew lost control and the aircraft crashed in the Black Sea. [12]
9 January 1951  Kazan Li-2 CCCP-Л4359 West Siberia W/O 6/6 While descending to Kazan, the aircraft encountered icing conditions and clouds. The cockpit windows iced over. While on approach the right wing struck the top of a radio tower at 130 m (430 ft), breaking off a portion of the wing. The aircraft continued to fly for 220–250 m (720–820 ft) until it crashed in a field. [13]
28 January 1951  Narimanovka Airport Li-2 CCCP-Л4715 Kazakhstan W/O 0/2 The aircraft was operating an Alma-Ata–Moscow service with in-route stops. During a night time approach to Kostanay, the crew encountered dense haze and attempted to land despite having no visual contact with the ground. The pilot mistook the ceiling of the haze with snowy terrain and leveled out at 30 m (98 ft), causing a loss of airspeed. The aircraft stalled and crashed. [14]
9 February 1951  Tashkent Airport Li-2 CCCP-Л4821 Uzbekistan W/O 0/4 At the start of a training flight, the aircraft took off with frozen soil on the leading edge of the horizontal stabilizer. The aircraft pitched up, lost airspeed, and crashed from a height of 20 m (66 ft). [15]
13 March 1951  Sverdlovsk Il-12P CCCP-Л1319 West Siberia W/O 0 While approaching Sverdlovsk the aircraft encountered icing conditions and the cockpit windows iced over. During landing the crew did not monitor instruments and later lowered the landing gear. After the engines were throttled back the aircraft suddenly lost altitude and crashed 2 km (1.2 mi) short of the runway. The aircraft was completing the second leg of a Moscow–Kazan–Sverdlovsk–Novosibirsk passenger service. [16][17]
25 March 1951  Iskra Li-2 CCCP-Л4790 East Siberia W/O 12/13 Shortly after takeoff from Irkutsk at night the aircraft encountered low clouds, poor weather, heavy turbulence and icing conditions. The aircraft was flying low and drifted off course. The crew accidentally feathered the number two propeller, causing a loss of altitude. The aircraft descended until it struck trees and lost control, stalling and crashing upside down on a slope of a wooded hill. The sole survivor, although seriously injured, was found ten days later. The aircraft was operating a domestic scheduled Irkutsk-Chita-Yakutsk passenger service as Flight 451. Investigation revealed that the captain was drunk and the co-pilot was licensed to fly the Po-2, not the Li-2. [18][19]
29 March 1951  Moscow Il-12P CCCP-Л1313 Un­known W/O 3/8 After repairs at the ARB-400 facility at Vnukovo Airport, the aircraft departed to perform a test flight, despite poor visibility. The crew lost spatial orientation due to a malfunctioning compass. ATC advised the crew to make a belly landing, but the crew insisted on landing at Vnukovo. The crew located the airport, still in poor visibility, and began an approach, but performed a go-around after the aircraft was too far to the left of the runway. The aircraft was then diverted to an airport northwest of Moscow, but the crew was unable to locate it and returned to Vnukovo, where the aircraft made another approach, during which the right propeller struck the top of a radio tower. The aircraft entered a descending right turn, struck trees and crashed. [20][21]
8 April 1951  Mama Li-2T CCCP-Л4467 East Siberia W/O 8/8 The aircraft was operating a Kirensk-Ust-Kut-Mama-Kirensk cargo service. During a second flight to Mama the crew diverted to Bodaybo due to poor weather. The crew received permission to land at Mama but communication was lost afterwards. The aircraft crashed in a forest 18 km (11 mi) from the airport on the bank of the Vitim River with the tail hanging over the frozen river. [22][23]
21 April 1951  Yermakovsky District An-2T CCCP-A2597 Krasnoyarsk W/O 4/4 Disappeared while operating a Kyzyl-Abakan cargo service. The aircraft took off from Kyzyl despite bad weather on the flight path. The wreckage was found in 2009 in the Ermakovsky District, Krasnoyarsk Region; the aircraft had struck a mountain. [24][25]
12 August 1951  Vilyuysk Li-2 CCCP-Л4314 Yakut W/O 2/16 The aircraft was operating a Yakutsk-Vilyuysk-Nyurba service. Just after takeoff the left propeller feathered. The crew increased right engine power and prepared to go-around. While making a turn to go-around, the right engine overheated. The crew reduced engine power and began circling. The crew then attempted another go-around, but the right engine failed, causing a loss of speed and altitude. While making a left turn, the aircraft began to bank to the left and hit the ground, destroying the cockpit and splitting the fuselage in two. The left wing also separated. [26][27]
23 August 1951  Kanash Li-2 CCCP-Л1271 Moscow W/O 0 Force-landed 120 km (75 mi) southwest of Kazan Airport due to fuel exhaustion after the crew became disorientated. [28]
7 September 1951  Gorbovichi An-2T CCCP-A2583 Un­known W/O 5/5 Broke apart in mid-air and crashed during a training flight due to both a design fault and a manufacturing defect. [29][30]
1 October 1951  Krasnoyarsk Territory Li-2 CCCP-Л4775 Krasnoyarsk W/O 6/15 Crashed in a forest. The aircraft was flying at 50–200 m (160–660 ft), depending on cloud height; the aircraft flew into cloud several times. After passing the Kureyka River the aircraft descended to 50–70 m (160–230 ft). While flying up a hill slope the propellers and wings began striking tree tops. The pilot took the controls to avoid a head-on collision with the hill, but the left side of the tail struck trees, breaking off the elevator and stabilizer. After a 180 degree turn speed was lost and the aircraft crashed. The aircraft was operating a Krasnoyarsk-Turukhansk-Nadezhda passenger service as Flight 33. [31][32]
10 October 1951  Bogdanovich Li-2 CCCP-Л4416 Ural W/O 1/10 Crashed in a swampy area 70 kilometres (43 mi) from Koltsovo Airport due to crew disorientation and resulting fuel exhaustion. The aircraft was operating a Sochi-Kazan-Sverdlovsk passenger service as Flight 521. [33]
30 October 1951  Arkangelsk Li-2 CCCP-Л4393 Northern W/O 0 Both engines failed while on approach to Arkangelsk after the flight engineer made a mistake in handling the fuel system. The aircraft force-landed in the Severnaya Dvina River some 10 m (33 ft) from the banks and partially sank. [34]
14 November 1951  Nikolayevsk-na-Amure Il-12P CCCP-Л1360 Yakut W/O 0/19 The aircraft took off with snow on the fuselage, accumulated during taxiing and engine tests, after which it lifted off too late and too slow, causing the aircraft to vibrate. Assuming the vibration to be a rough-running engine, the flight engineer overfueled the left engine, and it lost power. Altitude was lost and the aircraft crashed, broke up, and caught fire. The aircraft was beginning the second leg of a domestic scheduled Khabarovsk–Nikolayevsk-na-Amure–Seymchan–Magadan passenger service. [35][36]
17 November 1951  Novosibirsk Il-12P CCCP-Л1775 Moscow W/O 23/23 Crashed shortly after takeoff due to wing icing. Due to operate a domestic non-scheduled Novosibirsk-Omsk-Moscow passenger service. [37][38]
30 November 1951  Kiev Li-2 Un­known Belarus W/O 0 En route to Kiev the right engine lost oil due to a leaking oil cooler. The propeller could not be feathered and the aircraft force-landed in a forest clearing 50 km (31 mi) east of Kiev. The aircraft was operating a domestic scheduled Kharkov–Kiev passenger service. [39]
27 December 1951  Namtsev Li-2 CCCP-Л4228 Yakut W/O 20/20 The aircraft was operating a domestic scheduled Yakutsk–Vilyuysk passenger service when it force-landed 90 kilometres (56 mi) out of Yakutsk due to double engine failure caused by fuel exhaustion. The aircraft collided with trees and was destroyed by fire. [40]
9 January 1952  Stalingrad Li-2 CCCP-Л4315 Azerbaijan W/O 3/4 While on approach to Stalingrad, the aircraft lost altitude, stalled and crashed into a snowy field some 60 m (200 ft) to the right of the runway, breaking in two. The aircraft was completing the Voronezh–Stalingrad leg of a Moscow–Voronezh–Stalingrad–Baku cargo service as Flight 203. [41][42]
21 February 1952  Baratayevka Airport Il-12 CCCP-Л1849 Advanced Flying Training College Repaired 1/18 The aircraft took off with the center of gravity too far forward. Due to pilot error, the aircraft lost altitude. The pilot attempted to regain altitude, but the propellers had struck the ground. The aircraft then touched down again, both propellers hitting the ground a second time. A blade from the left propeller then broke off and punctured the fuselage, killing a passenger and seriously injuring a second. The aircraft was repaired and returned to service as a cargo freighter and continued flying until 1964. [43][44]
26 March 1952  Tula Airport Un­known Un­known Un­known W/O 70 A passenger aircraft, reportedly with 36 on board, overran the runway on landing at Tula Airport, colliding with a military transport aircraft carrying 34 people. Both aircraft caught fire. Given the death toll, the aircraft involved were probably Li-2 or Il-12. The passenger aircraft was operating an Odessa–Tula–Moscow service while the military aircraft was preparing for a flight to Berlin. [45]
5 April 1952  Magdagachi Il-12P CCCP-Л1308 East Siberia W/O 6/6 Crashed shortly after takeoff. After lifting off, the aircraft climbed to 30–40 m (98–131 ft) but then began banking to the right. Control was lost and the aircraft crashed 922 m (3,025 ft) to the right of the runway and 600 m (2,000 ft) past the runway. The cause of the crash was not determined, but a locked left aileron was blamed. The aircraft was operating an Irkutsk–Chita–Magdagachi–Khabarovsk cargo service as Flight 5. [46]
25 April 1952  Karmanovo Il-12P CCCP-Л1312 West Siberia W/O 8/9 Crashed during a training flight. The crew simulated flying in cloud with one engine out and its propeller feathered. The aircraft lost speed and entered a left turning dive. Two of the crew ran to the rear of the aircraft. The flight engineer attempted to move the propeller to its normal position and increased power to the other engine, but the aircraft crashed near a farm. [47][48]
3 May 1952  Khandyga Li-2 CCCP-Л4602 Yakut W/O 4/4 The aircraft was operating a Yakutsk-Khandyga-Allaikha cargo service. The aircraft encountered bad weather and deviated from the route due to strong winds. It entered clouds and struck a mountain at 1,200 m (3,900 ft) in the Verkhoyanski mountain range. [49]
19 July 1952  Spilve Airport Li-2 CCCP-Л4197 Latvia W/O 4/4 Crashed during a training flight following double engine failure, probably due to mismanagement of the fuel system. While performing a go-around both engines quit, causing a loss of speed. The aircraft stalled while in a left turn and crashed near the airport. [50][51]
23 August 1952  Chlya Il-12 CCCP-Л1488 Far East Repaired 1/16 Seventy minutes after takeoff, the crew heard a loud clap sound and felt a vibration. A portion of a propeller blade on the right engine had broken off and punctured the fuselage, destroying hydraulic lines, engine control cables and electrical wires. The blade then struck the legs of the flight mechanic (who later died) and then embedded itself in the upper wing of a Po-2 (CCCP-T743) that the aircraft was transporting. The engine developed vibrations but could not be shut down nor could the propeller be feathered. The aircraft lost altitude and a wheels-up forced landing was made. The aircraft was operating a Khabarovsk–Nikolaevsk-on-Amur–Okhotsk–Magadan passenger service. [52][53]
28 September 1952  Belogorsk Li-2 CCCP-Л4673 Far East W/O 7/7 The aircraft disappeared while being ferried from Khabarovsk to Tashkent for repairs, with stops at Krasnoyarsk and Novosibirsk. The aircraft was accidentally discovered in 1967 on a mountain 158 km (98 mi) from Kemerovo. While on the Krasnoyarsk-Novosibirsk leg the aircraft encountered severe icing conditions and turbulence. The crew decided to make a forced landing but the aircraft struck trees and crashed. [54]
5 October 1952  Skvoritsy Il-12P CCCP-Л1328 Northern W/O 31/31 Both aircraft were involved in a mid-air collision. The Il-12 was operating a domestic scheduled Minsk-1 Airport–Shosseynaya Airport passenger service as Flight 376 with 24 occupants on board, and had initiated the descent to the destination airport. The TS-62 had departed the same airport bound for Minsk as Flight 381, with three passengers and a crew of four aboard. All occupants on both aircraft perished in the accident. Collision attributed to ATC errors. [55][56]
TS-62 CCCP-Л1055 Northern W/O
22 October 1952  Kuibyshev Airport Li-2 CCCP-Л4875 Central W/O 0/12 During the approach to Kuibyshev (now Samara), the aircraft descended below the glide scope, collided with a high-voltage power line between the outer marker and inner marker and crashed.

The aircraft was operating a domestic scheduled Khorog-Stalinabad passenger service as Flight 878. [73]
13 August 1953  Bykovo Airport Li-2 CCCP-Л4393 MUTA W/O 0/0 Struck by a TS-62 (CCCP-Л1034) that had landed 170 m (560 ft) to the right of the runway due to fog. The collision damaged the tail of the Li-2 and the right wing of the TS-62; the Li-2 was written off. [74]
22 August 1953  Bykovo Airport Li-2 CCCP-Л4157 MUTA W/O 0/1 The aircraft was parked in preparation for a flight to Krasnoyarsk. Early in the morning an engine mechanic entered the aircraft and started the engines. Although he was able to take off, the aircraft assumed a nose-high attitude, stalled and crashed from 5–10 m (16–33 ft). [75][76]
14 October 1953  Irkutsk Il-12P CCCP-Л1727 East Siberia W/O 4/28 Shortly after takeoff from Irkutsk, the pilot mistook the lights on the inner marker masts for an aircraft approaching head on. The pilot banked sharply to the right at low altitude to avoid a collision, but the aircraft stalled and crashed 2.5 km (1.6 mi) short of the runway and 500 m (1,600 ft) to the right of the runway. The aircraft was operating a domestic scheduled Moscow–Irkutsk–Chita–Yuzhno-Sakhalinsk service as Flight 9. [77][78]
21 October 1953  Mineralnye Vody Li-2 CCCP-Л4890 West Siberia W/O 1/8 Eighty-seven minutes after takeoff from Stalingrad at 2,100 m (6,900 ft) the aircraft flew into snow. The crew were unable to set up the direction finder for their destination due to radio interference. Without ATC permission the crew decided to return to Stalingrad and climbed to 3,000 m (9,800 ft). Once above the clouds the crew set up the direction finder and turned back around and descended to 2,700 m (8,900 ft), despite being allowed to only operate 600 meters lower. Later the aircraft encountered icing and light snow and the radio compass began to malfunction. The crew unilaterally descended to 1,500 m (4,900 ft). The crew then descended to 300 m (980 ft) without ATC permission. The aircraft descended even lower, later striking stone structures and crashing in a field. The aircraft was operating a domestic scheduled Sverdlovsk-Stalingrad-Mineralye Vody passenger service as Flight 525. [79][80]
27 October 1953  Magadan Il-12P CCCP-Л1765 Far East W/O 22/27 Crashed two minutes after takeoff from Magadan Airport. The wings had not been de-iced before takeoff, and the overloaded aircraft lost speed on climbout, banking to the left and then to the right, eventually crashing 6 km (3.7 mi) from the airport. Due to operate a domestic scheduled Magadan-Okhotsk-Khabarovsk passenger service as Flight 783. [81]
31 October 1953  near Kharkov Airport Li-2 CCCP-Л4732 North Caucasus W/O 15/16 Crashed on approach to Kharkov. The pilot came in too low and lost speed in a right turn and struck the ground and crashed in a residential garden between two houses in a village near the airport; the surviving passenger was seriously injured. The crew had previously practiced instrument flying training on passenger flights and was performing the approach with the cockpit curtains closed. The aircraft was operating a Rostov-on-Don–Kharkiv–Moscow passenger service as Flight 270. [82][83]
4 November 1953  near Magdagachi Airport Il-12P CCCP-Л1367 East Siberia W/O 5/5 Struck trees and crashed while on approach to Magdagachi Airport. The left altimeter was set incorrectly and it showed an altitude of 55 m (180 ft) greater than the actual altitude. While on final approach the aircraft struck trees 5,620 m (3.49 mi) from the airport, causing the left wing to separate. The aircraft crashed upside down 358 m (1,175 ft) after striking trees and burned out. The aircraft was operating an Irkutsk–Chita–Magdagachi–Khabarovsk cargo service as Flight 5. [84][85]

23 January 1955  Lipovets Li-2T CCCP-Л4510 Ukraine W/O 3/13 Twenty-three minutes after takeoff from Kiev, the passengers smelled a burning odor and noticed a dark stain above a window. A crewmember's cigarette had been thrown out the right window into the cabin intake, starting a fire in the ventilation system. The fire spread quickly, due to the non-impregnated cotton insulation. The fire could not be extinguished and following an emergency descent, the aircraft belly landed in flames in a field, slid for 1,000–1,200 m (3,300–3,900 ft) before it came to rest on the frozen Rosava River and burned out. The aircraft was operating a domestic scheduled Kiev-Nikolaev-Simferpol passenger service as Flight 613. The aircraft had been converted to a passenger-cargo (combi) aircraft at ARB-411 in January 1955 and had deviated from the standard at ARB-402, such as an improperly placed cabin intake and non-fireproof cabin insulation. Several Li-2s converted at ARB-411 had the same construction flaws as CCCP-Л4510 and management at ARB-411 was blamed. [102][103]
8 May 1955  Dnepropetrovsk Li-2 CCCP-Л4098 Ukraine W/O 4/4 Broke-up in mid air and crashed after encountering turbulence. The aircraft was operating a Kiev-Dnepropetrovsk (now Dnipro)-Zaporozhye cargo service as Flight 599. [104][105]

During the first leg of the flight, an unscheduled stop was made at Voronezh to pick up several passengers. After landing, a slight oil leak was discovered on the right engine. The aircraft then continued to Stalingrad. At Stalingrad the right engine was again leaking oil. The engine was cleaned and a valve cover tightened, stopping the leak. The aircraft took off for the return leg to Moscow. At 15:10 the crew radioed that they had feathered the right propeller and would make an emergency landing at Voronezh. The aircraft received permission to descend to 900 m (3,000 ft), but communication was lost later. The burning aircraft was found in a field 5 km (3.1 mi) from Voronezh Airport; the right engine and right wing were found 185 m (607 ft) and 550 m (1,800 ft) from the fuselage, respectively. The right engine failed and caught fire; at 800–900 m (2,600–3,000 ft) the burning engine fell off, but the wing, weakened by the fire, also separated, causing a loss of control. The aircraft crashed. The crew did not realize the engine was on fire until it was too late. [107][108]
15 September 1955  Kansky District Il-12P CCCP-Л1359 West Siberia W/O 7/7 ATC failed to inform the crew of a thunderstorm that had formed on the flight route.

9 December 1955  Tyumen Region Li-2 CCCP-Л4339 Kazakhstan W/O 7/9 While on the Sverdlovsk–Petropavlovsk leg the aircraft was blown off course by strong winds, stronger than forecast. To make matters worse, the radio compass failed and Petropavlovsk Airport was closed due to bad weather. The crew decided to divert to Kurgan, but could not establish contact with the airport and decided to return to Sverdlovsk, but the crew did not realize that the aircraft had deviated north of the flight route by 120 km (75 mi). The crew realized that fuel was insufficient for them to reach Sverdlovsk and continued to Petropavlovsk, although the airport was closed. The crew attempted to locate Petropavlovsk, although they were actually 215 km (134 mi) to the northeast. The aircraft ran out of fuel and a wheels-up forced landing was made in a snow-covered field near the Omsk-Tyumen rail line. The aircraft was operating a domestic scheduled Moscow–Kazan–Sverdlovsk–Petropavlovsk–Pavlodar–Ust-Kamenogorsk passenger service as Flight 101. [113][114]
21 December 1955  Balkhash Lake Li-2 CCCP-Л4981 Kazakhstan W/O 6/6 Eighty-six minutes after takeoff the crew reported that the gyroscopes had failed, due to a failure in the vacuum regulator. Communication with the aircraft was lost later; the wreckage was found the next day in the snow-covered Saryesik-Atyrau desert 105 km (65 mi) from Balkhash Airport. The crew probably became disorientated following the gyroscope failure and the aircraft later crashed. The aircraft was operating an Alma-Ata–Balkhash–Moscow cargo service as Flight 90. [115][116]

4 July 1956  Voronezh Airport Li-2 CCCP-Л4869 North Caucasus W/O 0 The aircraft had just completed the second leg of a Mineralnye Vody–Rostov–Voronezh–Moscow passenger service as Flight 256. While taxiing along a dirt taxiway to the airport terminal, at 300 m (980 ft) from the runway, the crew felt a sharp jolt and a dull explosion on the right side of the aircraft. The explosion had blown the aircraft onto its left wingtip and a fire erupted in the right engine, which later fell off. The fire spread to the fuselage, but all on board were able to escape before the aircraft partially burned out. A crater 1.2 m (3.9 ft) and 3.6–3.7 m (11.8–12.1 ft) was found at the explosion site. The explosion was caused by a TM-35 anti-tank mine from the Great Patriotic War. During WWII, the front line passed through the airport and although all craters and trenches were filled from 1943-1948 and the ground plowed and sodded, the land mines were apparently missed. [120]
20 July 1956  Batagay An-2T CCCP-Л5554 East Siberia W/O 4/6 Struck a mountain. The crew intentionally followed the wrong airway, flying at 1,400 m (4,600 ft). Although the crew did not sight land, they decided to continue rather than turn around. The aircraft entered cloud and deviated from the flight route. Rather than turning around, the crew descended to 1,300 m (4,300 ft) and later crashed into a 1,468-metre-high (4,816 ft) mountain and was destroyed by fire.
