Aeroflot accidents and incidents

Founded in 1923, Aeroflot, the flag carrier and largest airline of Russia (and formerly the Soviet Union) (formerly the world's largest airline), has had a high number of fatal crashes, most occurring during the Soviet era. According to the Aircraft Crashes Record Office, 8,231 passengers have died in Aeroflot crashes, about five times more than any other airline (all of which were far smaller).[1] From 1946 to 1989, the carrier was involved in 721 incidents. However, from 1995 to 2017, the carrier was involved in 10 incidents. In 2013, AirlineRatings.com reported that five of the ten aircraft models involved in the highest numbers of fatal accidents[2] were old Soviet models.[3]

Following is a list of accidents and incidents Aeroflot experienced all through its history.

1930s–40s

Date Location Aircraft Tail number Airline division Aircraft damage Fatalities Description Refs
26 June 1935 Lazarev Savoia-Marchetti S.55P СССР-Л840 Far East W/O 12/12 Struck a mountain while flying too low after the pilot became disorientated. The aircraft was operating a Aleksandrovsk-Sakhalinsky–Khabarovsk passenger service. [4]
6 August 1937 Herina Douglas DC-2-152 URSS-M25 International W/O 6/6 Crashed after a passenger lit a cigarette in the toilet, where avgas fumes had accumulated. The aircraft was operating an international scheduled Prague–Cluj–Moscow passenger service. [5]
12 November 1937 Chardzhou PS-9 CCCP-Л167 Turkmenistan W/O 11/11 Four to five minutes after an uneventful takeoff, at 400–500 m (1,300–1,600 ft), the right engine quit. The aircraft began to turn right and the pilot corrected it. The pilot decided to return to Chardzhou and performed a left turn. Concerned that the aircraft might not reach the airport, the pilot performed a right turn, but because the right engine was not working, this caused a loss of control. The aircraft entered a dive at 150–200 m (490–660 ft) and crashed and burned out; the engine failure was probably caused by improper maintenance. The aircraft was operating a Chardzhou–Urgench passenger service. [6]

8 March 1942 Samarkand Region G-2 CCCP-Л1497 Uzbekistan W/O 23/23 The aircraft took off from Urgench, despite high winds on the flight route. Due to lack of weather information on the route to Tashkent, the crew diverted to Chardzhou, but did not fly on the flight route. Radio communication with the aircraft was not possible due to lightning. Tashkent Airport managed to get in contact with the aircraft who requested weather conditions in Tashkent who then requested the location of the aircraft, but received no response. The aircraft transmitted its location several times, but could not receive a reply due to radio interference. The crew radioed having passed Nurata, but this was the last contact with the flight. The aircraft was found two days later in the Nuratau Mountains, 10–12 km (6–7 mi) northeast of Dzhush. The aircraft, operating an Urgench–Tashkent passenger service, had struck a mountain 100 m (328 ft) from the top, probably while flying too low in poor weather. [21]

The aircraft took off from Alma-Ata, although Tashkent Airport personnel did not know of the flight plan and also did not check up on the crew. Forty minutes after the aircraft took off from Alma-Ata, a sandstorm erupted between Dzhambul and Frunze. The wreckage was found in 1943 in the mountains near Karzhantau Saylyk, 70 km (43 mi) northeast of Tashkent. The crew had become disoriented and the aircraft struck a mountain. [23]

Just after takeoff the left engine began to overheat. Thirty-eight minutes into the flight the left engine lost oil pressure and was shut down, but this also caused a loss of electric power, as the generator on the other engine was not working. The crew continued on the remaining engine, but a return to Kosisty was not possible due to poor weather. The crew flew towards Khatanga, but were unable to locate the airport and continued to Volochanka. Five hours into the flight the crew encountered icing conditions, but changed course and left for better weather conditions. The number one engine overheated and failed and the pilot then force-landed the aircraft in tundra on the Taymyr Peninsula. Three days after the accident, nine people (three crew and six passengers) left the crash site to seek help and were never seen again; the pilot's body was found in a bog 120 km (75 mi) southwest of the crash site in 1953. The remaining 25 survivors were rescued on 13 May 1947 by an Li-2.

  • On 30 June 2008, Tupolev Tu-154M (RA-85667) suffered an uncontained engine failure on takeoff from Pulkovo Airport en route to Moscow; all 112 passengers and crew survived, but the aircraft was written off and was parked at Pulkovo Airport where it was broken up in August 2009.[163] This accident led Aeroflot to retire the Tu-154 from service beginning in late 2008 and completely retired all Tu-154s by 2010 and replaced them with Airbus A320 family aircraft.[164]
  • On 14 September 2008, Aeroflot Flight 821 operated by Aeroflot-Nord in a service agreement with Aeroflot as its subsidiary, crashed on approach to Perm Airport, Russia due to pilot error. All 88 people on board; including 6 crew members and 82 passengers, were killed in the crash.[165]
  • On 3 June 2009, Boeing 737-500 (VP-BXM) suffered severe damage by a hailstorm while on approach to Simferopol en route from Moscow. The aircraft was written off and stored at Simferopol (with engines removed) where it was last seen in August 2011.[166]
