Aeroflot accidents and incidents in the 1950s
Following is a list of accidents and incidents Aeroflot experienced in the 1950s. The deadliest event the Soviet Union's flag carrier went through in the decade occurred in October 1958 , when a Tupolev Tu-104 crashed en route to Sverdlovsk, then located in the Russian SSR, killing all 80 occupants on board.[1] In terms of fatalities, the accident ranks as the eighth worst accident involving a Tu-104, as of July 2016.[2] Another aircraft of the type was involved in the second deadliest accident the airline experienced in the decade, this time in August 1958 , when 64 people were killed when the aircraft crashed near Chita after entering an updraft. The Tu-104's tail was modified and the service ceiling lowered in the wake of these two accidents.
The number of recorded fatalities aboard Aeroflot aircraft during the decade rose to 1059; likewise, 101 of its aircraft were written off in accidents or incidents, split into one Antonov An-10, 11 Antonov An-2s, two Avia 14Ps, 26 Ilyushin Il-12s, 14 Ilyushin Il-14s, one Ilyushin Il-18, 41 Lisunov Li-2s, 3 TS-62s, and 2 Tupolev Tu-104s. Most of the fatal accidents took place within the borders of the Soviet Union. The reluctance the Soviet government had for publicly admitting the occurrence of such events might render these figures higher, as fatal events tended to be admitted only when there were foreigners aboard the crashed aircraft, the accident took place in a foreign country, or they reached the news for some reason.

Unable to locate Dudinka, the crew decided to return to Turukhansk. On the way back ice formed on the wings. When the landing gear was lowered, the aircraft lost speed and altitude. The aircraft then stalled and crashed in open woodland 2 km (1.2 mi) northeast of Turukhansk Airport. The aircraft was operating a domestic scheduled Krasnoyarsk-Turukhansk-Dudinka passenger service. | [7] |
27 December 1950 | Mynzhilki | Li-2 | CCCP-Л4003 | Uzbekistan | W/O | 8/8 | The aircraft was operating an aerial photography training flight. After a stop at Dzhusaly the aircraft then flew for Turkestan, although the crew were unaware that strong winds had pushed the aircraft off course by 72 km (45 mi). The aircraft then crashed into Mount Mynzhilgi in the Karatau range at 2,050 m (6,730 ft), 126 m (413 ft) from the top. | [8] |
9 January 1951 | Black Sea off Tuapse | Il-12P | CCCP-Л1811 | Moscow | W/O | 8/8 | The aircraft was completing a domestic scheduled Moscow-Krasnodar-Sochi passenger service. While descending over the Black Sea for Sochi, the aircraft was struck by lightning at 900 m (3,000 ft). The left rear fuel tank exploded, starting a fire. The crew lost control and the aircraft crashed in the Black Sea. | [9] |
9 January 1951 | Kazan | Li-2 | CCCP-Л4359 | West Siberia | W/O | 6/6 | While descending to Kazan, the aircraft encountered icing conditions and clouds. The cockpit windows iced over. While on approach the right wing struck the top of a radio tower at 130 m (430 ft), breaking off a portion of the wing. The aircraft continued to fly for 220–250 m (720–820 ft) until it crashed in a field. | [10] |
25 March 1951 | Iskra | Li-2 | CCCP-Л4790 | East Siberia | W/O | 12/13 | Shortly after takeoff from Irkutsk at night the aircraft encountered low clouds, poor weather, heavy turbulence and icing conditions. The aircraft was flying low and drifted off course. The crew accidentally feathered the number two propeller, causing a loss of altitude. The aircraft descended until it struck trees and lost control, stalling and crashing upside down on a slope of a wooded hill. The sole survivor, although seriously injured, was found ten days later. The aircraft was operating a domestic scheduled Irkutsk-Chita-Yakutsk passenger service as Flight 451. Investigation revealed that the captain was drunk and the co-pilot was licensed to fly the Po-2, not the Li-2. | [11][12] |
29 March 1951 | Moscow | Il-12P | CCCP-Л1313 | Moscow | W/O | 3/8 | After repairs at the ARB-400 facility at Vnukovo Airport, the aircraft departed to perform a test flight, despite poor visibility. The crew lost spatial orientation due to a malfunctioning compass. ATC advised the crew to make a belly landing, but the crew insisted on landing at Vnukovo. The crew located the airport, still in poor visibility, and began an approach, but performed a go-around after the aircraft was too far to the left of the runway. The aircraft was then diverted to an airport northwest of Moscow, but the crew was unable to locate it and returned to Vnukovo, where the aircraft made another approach, during which the right propeller struck the top of a radio tower. The aircraft entered a descending right turn, struck trees and crashed. | [13] |
8 April 1951 | Mama | Li-2T | CCCP-Л4467 | East Siberia | W/O | 8/8 | The aircraft was operating a Kirensk-Ust-Kut-Mama-Kirensk cargo service.

The crew increased right engine power and prepared to go-around. While making a turn to go-around, the right engine overheated. The crew reduced engine power and began circling. The crew then attempted another go-around, but the right engine failed, causing a loss of speed and altitude. While making a left turn, the aircraft began to bank to the left and hit the ground, destroying the cockpit and splitting the fuselage in two. The left wing also separated. | [18][19] |
7 September 1951 | Gorbovichi | An-2 | CCCP-A2583 | Ukraine | W/O | 5/5 | Broke apart in mid-air and crashed during a training flight due to both a design fault and a manufacturing defect. | [20] |
1 October 1951 | Krasnoyarsk Territory | Li-2 | CCCP-Л4775 | Krasnoyarsk | W/O | 6/15 | Crashed in a forest. The aircraft was flying at 50–200 m (160–660 ft), depending on cloud height; the aircraft flew into cloud several times. After passing the Kureyka River the aircraft descended to 50–70 m (160–230 ft). While flying up a hill slope the propellers and wings began striking tree tops. The pilot took the controls to avoid a head-on collision with the hill, but the left side of the tail struck trees, breaking off the elevator and stabilizer. After a 180 degree turn speed was lost and the aircraft crashed. The aircraft was operating a Krasnoyarsk-Turukhansk-Nadezhda passenger service as Flight 33. | [21][22] |
11 October 1951 | Bogdanovich | Li-2 | CCCP-Л4416 | Ural | W/O | 1/10 | Crashed in a swampy area 70 kilometres (43 mi) from Koltsovo Airport due to crew disorientation and resulting fuel exhaustion. The aircraft was operating a Sochi-Kazan-Sverdlovsk passenger service as Flight 521. | [23] |

23 August 1952 | Chlya | Il-12 | CCCP-Л1488 | Far East | Repaired | 1/16 | Seventy minutes after takeoff, the crew heard a loud clap sound and felt a vibration. A portion of a propeller blade on the right engine had broke off and punctured the fuselage, destroying hydraulic lines, engine control cables and electrical wires. The blade then struck the legs of the flight mechanic (who later died) and then embedded itself in the upper wing of a Po-2 that the aircraft was transporting. The engine developed vibrations but could not be shut down nor could the propeller be feathered. The aircraft lost altitude and a wheels-up forced landing was made. The aircraft was operating a Khabarovsk–Nikolaevsk-on-Amur–Okhotsk–Magadan passenger service. | [33][34] |
28 September 1952 | Belogorsk | Li-2 | CCCP-Л4673 | Far East | W/O | 7/7 | The aircraft disappeared while being ferried from Khabarovsk to Tashkent for repairs, with stops at Krasnoyarsk and Novosibirsk. The aircraft was accidentally discovered in 1967 on a mountain 158 km (98 mi) from Kemerovo. While on the Krasnoyarsk-Novosibirsk leg the aircraft encountered severe icing conditions and turbulence. The crew decided to make a forced landing but the aircraft struck trees and crashed. | [35] |
5 October 1952 | Skvoritsy | Il-12 | CCCP-Л1328 | Northern | W/O | 31/31 | Both aircraft were involved in a mid-air collision near Skvoritsy. The Il-12 was operating a domestic scheduled Minsk-1 Airport–Shosseynaya Airport passenger service as Flight 376 with 24 occupants on board, and had initiated the descent to the destination airport. The TS-62 had departed the same airport bound for Minsk as Flight 381, with three passengers and a crew of four aboard. All occupants on both aircraft perished in the accident. | [36][37] |
