On July 24, 1984, an Antonov AN-26 (registration CCCP-26009) operated by Aeroflot - Russian International Airlines was involved in an aviation accident near Krasnosel'kup, Russia during landing or approach. No fatalities were reported. Investigators recorded the probable cause as: The aircraft failed to decelerate sufficiently during the landing roll, leading to a runway overrun. This summary draws on records from the Bureau of Aircraft Accidents Archives (B3A); 6 related events involving the same aircraft type or operator are linked below.
An aircraft failed to stop after touchdown, resulting in a runway excursion and significant damage to the airframe.
What happened
Following the completion of its landing sequence, the aircraft failed to decelerate sufficiently within the available runway length. The momentum of the plane caused it to overshoot the end of the paved surface, eventually coming to a halt approximately 300 metres beyond the runway threshold.
While the impact and subsequent excursion resulted in the airframe being damaged beyond repair, there were no casualties reported during the event. All five crew members on board managed to evacuate the aircraft safely and sustained zero injuries.
Findings
The primary factor in the accident was the inability to stop within the remaining runway distance after touchdown.
Probable cause
The aircraft failed to decelerate sufficiently during the landing roll, leading to a runway overrun.
