Safety history

  • February 22, 1972AccidentHull loss

    On final approach to Lipetsk Airport, at a height of some 1,500 meters, one of the crew member unintentionally applied the reverse thrust on both engines. The captain was forced to attempt an emergency landing and the aircraft eventually crash landed short of runway threshold. While all 13 occupants were uninjured, the aircraft was damaged beyond repair. Probable cause (official findings): Unintentional application of thrust reverser on final approach on part of a crew member.
