The aircraft was engaged in a spraying mission on behalf of the Dobrinsky farm in Lipetsk. In flight, the captain noted problems with the elevator control tabs and decided to return to his base for controls. While the captain and the mechanic were occupied, the copilot decided to take off alone. Few minutes after departure, the aircraft struck the concrete block of an electric pole (12 metres high) and crashed in a field. The pilot escaped uninjured and the aircraft was damaged beyond repair. P
