Safety history
- October 27, 1977AccidentHull loss
The airplane was engaged in an ice survey flight over the Vilkitsky Strait, carrying four scientists and seven crew members. The goal of the mission was to facilitate the passage of ships in the Laptev Sea. After overflying Peter Island, while cruising by night at an altitude of 250 meters, the navigator made a mistake, causing the aircraft to fly to the wrong direction. Approaching the shore at an insufficient height, the airplane struck the icy and snow covered ground, slid for about 180 meter
