Safety history

September 26, 1969Accident
On final approach to Tiksi by night and poor weather conditions, while at an altitude of 300 meters and a speed of 150 km/h, the engine failed. The airplane stalled and crashed into the Tiksi bay, some 2.5 km from the runway threshold. A passenger was rescued while five other occupants were killed.
Ан-2 · 5 fatalities
The engine failed on approach to Tiksi Airport due to the failure of exhaust valves, pistons and cylinders. It was also determined that the cylinder head temperature decreased on final approach and that the carburetor was iced, causing the engine to lose power and the aircraft to suffer a reduction of aerodynamic performances.
