Ил-14П · 30 fatalities
The accident was the consequence of several navigation errors on part of the flying crew who decided to cut the route, apparently to save time. The captain decided to continue under VFR in IMC conditions and at the time of the accident, the aircraft was about 40 to 50 km off course to the right of the intended route. Full accident record
