About an hour after his departure from Khvoynaya Airport, en route by night to Leningrad, the pilot lost his orientation and decided to return to Khvoynaya. For unknown reason, he started an approach to the Yakhnovo Airfield located 8 km southwest of Khvoynaya. On final approach, while at a height of 30 meters, the aircraft went out of control, dove into the ground and crashed in a swampy area located 1,5 km from the runway threshold. The aircraft was destroyed and all 17 occupants were killed.
