What happened
During May 1971, an aircraft was involved in an accident upon arrival at Titograd Airport. The flight concluded with a belly landing on the runway. While the incident resulted in no fatalities or injuries to those on board, the impact caused significant damage to the airframe. Due to the extent of the structural damage sustained during the landing, the aircraft was declared a total loss.
Findings
The specific cause for the landing gear failure or the decision to perform a belly landing remains undetermined, as the precise date and circumstances of the event were not recorded. The primary factor in the destruction of the plane was the impact of the fuselage with the runway surface.
