PZL-Mielec AN-2

According to the pilot, during cruise flight the engine began to run rough and lose power. He heard a loud metallic sound; the engine vibrated violently and then lost power. He performed a forced landing to a farm field, and the airplane nosed over in the soft terrain, resulting in substantial damage to the wings. A postaccident inspection revealed that the crankshaft would not rotate. An internal inspection of the cylinders and spark plugs did not reveal a reason for the power loss. The oil system was examined and there were large amounts of metal particles in the oil. Due to a lack of suitable equipment and facilities, further disassembly of the engine was not attempted.

The crew was performing a crop spraying flight in Dibrova, some 60 km northwest from Zhytomyr. In flight, the engine caught fire and crew elected to make an emergency landing in an open field. Upon touchdown, the aircraft rolled for few metres then overturned and came to rest upside down. Both pilots escaped with minor injuries and the aircraft was damaged beyond repair.

The single engine aircraft was engaged in a local skydiving mission in Santa Isabel, carrying nine skydivers and one pilot. Shortly after takeoff, while climbing to a height of about 150 metres, the engine lost power. The pilot decided to return immediately. Upon landing, the aircraft collided with bushes and came to rest, bursting into flames. All 10 occupants escaped unhurt while the aircraft was totally destroyed by fire.

The crew was performing a crop-spraying flight when a unexpected situation occurred. The pilot-in-command attempted an emergency landing in a dirt track located between Kumushkino and Botanichnoye, when the aircraft crash landed. Both occupants escaped uninjured while the aircraft was damaged beyond repair. According to Ukrainian authorities, it appears that the aircraft was operated without any CofA and CofR.

Shortly after takeoff from Tuzla Airport, the single engine aircraft stalled and crashed in an open field, bursting into flames. Two passengers survived while 12 other occupants were killed. The aircraft was carrying 4 crew and 10 members of the Romanian Navy engaged in a paratroopers mission.

The crew was performing a survey flight while in a fire fighting program. In flight, the engine failed and the crew elected to make an emergency landing. The aircraft stalled and crashed in the Varnavka River. Both pilots and the passenger were injured while the aircraft sank and was damaged beyond repair.

The crew was on a positioning flight for a crop-spraying mission in North Kazakhstan when he lost his orientation between the villages of Taiynsha and Sorochinskiy. He landed on a small field near the village of Sarybulak to establish his position. After takeoff with a slight tail wind, at a height of 15 metres, the pilot-in-command initiated a left turn when the left lower wing struck a tree. The aircraft stalled and crashed, bursting into flames. Both pilots were killed while the engineer was seriously injured. The aircraft was totally destroyed by a post crash fire.
