Aeroflot accidents and incidents in the 1990s

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

An Airbus A310-300, similar to the one involved in the crash of Flight 593, is seen here on short final to London Heathrow Airport in August 1994 (1994-08).

After the dissolution of the Soviet Union in December 1991 (1991-12), its former republics started establishing their own carriers from the corresponding directorates Aeroflot had at these countries, causing the airline to shrink drastically.[1][2][3] The fleet reduced from several thousand aircraft to a number slightly over 100 in 1993,[4] helping the former Soviet Union's national airline to improve its accidents and incidents record sharply. The company experienced 42 events between 1990 and 1991 only, and had 41 occurrences in the rest of the decade. Despite this, the three deadliest accidents the airline went through in the decade occurred in the post-Soviet era, leaving a death toll of 257, each one involving more than 50 fatalities.

The worst accident involved a Tupolev Tu-134A that contacted trees on approach to Ivanovo Airport in August 1992 (1992-08), crashing and killing all 84 passengers and crew on board.[5] The most infamous crash and the second worst accident for the company in the decade occurred in March 1994 (1994-03) when an Airbus A310 that was flying the MoscowHong Kong route crashed in the Kemerovo Oblast shortly after the captain's son manipulated the controls of the aircraft, with the loss of 75 lives.[6][7]

Overall, 525 people lost their lives either on board Aeroflot aircraft or on the ground. The number of aircraft the airline wrote off during the decade fell to 71, split into an Airbus A310-300, two Antonov An-12s, an Antonov An-124, 20 Antonov An-2s, five Antonov An-24s, two Antonov An-26s, five Antonov An-28s, two Ilyushin Il-14s, four Ilyushin Il-62s, two Ilyushin Il-76s, two Ilyushin Il-86s, five Let L-410s, six Tupolev Tu-134s, six Tupolev Tu-154s, seven Yakovlev Yak-40s and a Yakovlev Yak-42.

Following is a list of the accidents and incidents Aeroflot experienced during the decade.

1990 Un­known An-2P CCCP-07308 Krasnoyarsk W/O 5/5 Mid-air collision. [8]
13 January 1990 Soviet UnionPervouralsk Tu-134A CCCP-65951 North Caucasus W/O 27/71[nb 1] The aircraft was en route a domestic scheduled TyumenUfa passenger service as Flight 6246 at 10,600 metres (34,800 ft) when smoke in the rear cargo hold prompted a fire warning in both engines, probably due to a short circuit of the electrical wiring. The flightcrew made an emergency descent, and the airplane force landed on snowy fields, 3 kilometres (1.9 mi; 1.6 nmi) away from Pervouralsk. [9]

20 February 1990 Soviet UnionŠiauliai An-2R CCCP-56472 Lithuania W/O Un­known Crashed. [11]
16 March 1990 Soviet UnionChita Airport An-28 CCCP-28702 East Siberia W/O 0 During the approach, the aircraft landed hard due to pilot error, damaging the landing gear. The crew performed a go-around and landed on the damaged landing gear. The aircraft, operating a training flight out of Chita, was written off. [12]
27 March 1990 AfghanistanKabul Il-76MD CCCP-78781 Uzbekistan W/O 11/11 The aircraft, on loan from the Soviet Air Force, was operating a Kokand-Kabul cargo service. At 5,400 metres (17,700 ft), while on approach to Kabul, air traffic control ordered the pilot to discontinue the approach. The flaps and landing gear were retracted, yet the approach was continued. The aircraft stalled and crashed. [13]

[14]

13 April 1990 Soviet UnionUelen An-2T CCCP-04355 Magadan W/O 1/6 During takeoff, the aircraft pitched up, lost airspeed, stalled and crashed on the snow-covered, frozen Uelen Lagoon. The aircraft was overloaded, causing the center of gravity to move beyond limits. The aircraft was operating a Uelen–Provideniya cargo service in support of the "Great Circle" international expedition. [15]
2 June 1990 Soviet UnionKenkiyak An-24B CCCP-46551 North Caucasus W/O 0/33 A hard landing caused the nosegear to break up. The aircraft overran the runway and was destroyed by fire. [16]
12 June 1990 AfghanistanKabul Il-76MD CCCP-86905 Uzbekistan W/O 0/10 Forced landing at Kabul Airport, after it was struck by a missile at 25,500 feet (7,800 m). [17]
26 June 1990 Soviet UnionShurma An-2R CCCP-19730 Ural W/O 3/3 The aircraft was returning from crop-spraying at Malmyzh when the pilots, who were drunk, performed stunts at low altitude. The aircraft was "hopping" over trees when it lost airspeed, banked, crashed in a forest and caught fire. [18]
1 July 1990 Soviet UnionYakutsk Il-62M CCCP-86456 Moscow W/O 0/109 Overran the runway upon landing at Yakutsk Airport. After touching down, the pilots accidentally set engines one and four to takeoff thrust rather than reverse thrust and the aircraft picked up speed as a result. The pilots did not realize their mistake and attempted emergency braking, but this blew out all landing gear tires. As speed increased the crew shut down all four engines, but too late, as there was not enough runway length to stop. The aircraft overran at 200 km/h (108 kn; 124 mph) and rolled another 397 metres (1,302 ft) before stopping. The landing gear collapsed and the fuselage broke in three. The aircraft was completing a Moscow–Yakutsk passenger service as Flight 93. [19]
19 July 1990 Un­known An-2 CCCP-40861 Yakut W/O Un­known Crashed into mountainous terrain. [20]

17 November 1990 CzechoslovakiaVelichovky Tu-154M CCCP-85664 International W/O 0/6 The aircraft was flying a EuroairportSheremetyevo cargo service, when a fire broke out at 10,600 metres (34,800 ft), prompting the flightcrew to make an emergency landing. [31]
21 November 1990 Soviet UnionMagan Airport Il-62 CCCP-86613 Domodedovo W/O 0/189 While en route to Yakutsk the crew were informed that visibility was poor at Yakutsk Airport. The crew considered diverting to Khabarovsk, but visibility improved at Yakutsk. While descending to 1,800 metres (5,900 ft), ATC reported that visibility at Yakutsk had dropped again. The crew diverted to Magan Airport and continued descending. The aircraft touched down halfway down the runway. Realizing that the aircraft would overrun the runway, the crew extended the spoilers and braked hard; just before the end of the runway the pilot ordered the engines to be shut down. The aircraft ran off the runway and steered right to avoid the localizer building. The landing gear was ripped off as the aircraft crossed a dirt road and the aircraft then finally came to rest at a snow-covered ravine. The aircraft was completing a domestic scheduled Moscow–Yakutsk passenger service as Flight 95. [32]
30 November 1990 Soviet UnionDikson Airport Yak-40K CCCP-87394 Krasnoyarsk W/O 0/35 The aircraft came in too high in bad weather.

3 October 1991 AngolaCazombo Airport An-12BP CCCP-11120 International W/O 0 While landing, the wings struck some bushes as the runway was too short and too narrow. The crew found out the airfield was mined; they decided to take off again, but while turning for takeoff the right-side landing gear broke after it got stuck in a pothole, causing the propellers to contact the ground. The aircraft was to be repaired some time later (engines, propellers and technicians were brought over), but the fuselage was severely corroded by then, so the aircraft, which was operating a Lobito–Luena–Cazombo cargo service, was written off instead. [45]
23 October 1991 Soviet UnionShelopugino An-28 CCCP-28924 East Siberia W/O 0/13 Hard landing. [46]
7 November 1991 Soviet UnionMakhachkala Yak-40 CCCP-87526 North Caucasus W/O 51/51 While descending for Makhachkala, visibility worsened.
