While completing a left turn at the limit of the field, the aircraft struck a tree and crashed, bursting into flames. The pilot and two teenagers were killed. They were not authorised to take part of the flight.

During the takeoff roll, after a roll of 200 metres, while at a speed of 80 km/h, the aircraft encountered strong crosswinds and turned for about 30°. The pilot-in-command decided to abort the takeoff procedure when the aircraft struck an earth mound and came to rest. There were no casualties.

After touchdown, the aircraft deviated to the left, veered off runway and entered a soft ground. Due to strong crosswinds, the aircraft overturned and came to rest upside down. There were no casualties.

The crew miscalculated speed and propeller pitch on approach to Yuzhno-Kurilsk. The seaplane landed at an excessive speed and while making a right turn in shallow water (1,6 metre deep), the right float struck the water surface and was torn off. In the meantime, the aircraft collided with a sandbank, causing a tear in the fuselage. Water entered the cabin and the aircraft came to rest about 20 metres from the shore. All 38 occupants escaped uninjured and the aircraft was damaged beyond repair.

During the takeoff roll at Ust-Kuyga Airport, the aircraft became uncontrollable. It veered off runway to the right and came to rest. All 27 occupants escaped uninjured while the aircraft was damaged beyond repair.

Despite poor weather conditions, the crew decided to takeoff from Peledui at 1805LT. Two minutes and 30 seconds later, he realized that weather conditions were worse than predicted. In below-minima weather conditions (snowfall and poor visibility), the crew encountered white-out conditions when the aircraft struck the snow-covered surface of the frozen Lena river located 7.5 km southwest of the airport. The aircraft cartwheeled and came to rest upside down. Both pilots and both passengers were injured and the aircraft was destroyed.

While engaged in a skydiving mission out from Tushino Airport, the pilot started the takeoff run before all skydivers were seated, so they were thrown into the back of the cabin. At liftoff, the center of gravity was out of the envelope (too far aft). The aircraft stalled and crashed. The pilot and all 10 passengers escaped unhurt while the aircraft was damaged beyond repair.

The single engine airplane was completing a flight from Ventsy (krai of Krasnodar) to Maykop, carrying two pilots and one mechanic. On approach to Maykop Airport, the crew encountered below minima weather conditions with clouds down to 100 metres and a visibility of 1 km. The crew was unable to establish a visual contact with the runway and when ATC suggested the crew to return to Ventsy, the crew said he was short of fuel. Shortly later, the engine failed; the aircraft lost height and crashed in an open field located 3 km from the airport, bursting into flames. All three occupants were killed.

The approach to Krasnodar-Pashkovsky Airport was completed by night and heavy rain falls. The aircraft landed hard, bounced several times and eventually landed on its nose, causing the nose gear to be partially torn off. It slid on runway for few dozen metres and came to rest. All 20 occupants escaped uninjured while the aircraft was damaged beyond repair.

After takeoff from Tver-Migalovo AFB, while climbing to a height of about 250 metres, the aircraft pitched up and down then stalled and crashed. All 33 occupants were killed.
