Safety history

January 16, 1987AccidentHull loss
The crew was cleared for takeoff from Tashkent-Yuzhny Airport and started the procedure. After liftoff, while climbing to a height of 15-20 meters, at a speed of 230 km/h, the aircraft banked left, lost height and crashed, bursting into flames. The aircraft was destroyed and all nine occupants were killed.
Як-40 · 9 fatalities
The loss of control during initial climb was the consequence of wake turbulences created by an Ilyushin II-76 (CCCP-76482) that just took off from the same runway. It was determined that the time between both takeoffs was 81 seconds only. ATC was blamed to clear the Yak-40's crew too early and not observing the minimum separation between both takeoffs.
