On February 24, 1990, a PZL-Mielec AN-2 (registration CCCP-33544) operated by Aeroflot - Russian International Airlines was involved in an aviation accident near Amgu, Russia during landing or approach. No fatalities were reported. Investigators recorded the probable cause as: Loss of directional control after touchdown leading to a runway excursion. This summary draws on records from the Bureau of Aircraft Accidents Archives (B3A); 8 related events involving the same aircraft type or operator are linked below.
A single-engine airplane lost directional control immediately after landing, departing the paved surface before coming to a stop. No injuries were reported among those on board.
What happened
The incident occurred during the landing phase of a flight involving a single-engine aircraft. Upon making contact with the runway surface, the pilot was unable to maintain directional control of the airplane. The aircraft began to veer laterally away from the designated landing path. It continued off the paved runway surface before eventually coming to a complete stop.
Findings
The primary outcome of this event was the loss of control during the critical post-landing phase. Despite the aircraft leaving the runway environment, there were no casualties reported. The absence of injuries suggests that the structural integrity of the airframe remained sufficient to protect occupants during the excursion.
Probable cause
Loss of directional control after touchdown leading to a runway excursion
