Circumstances:
The crew was engaged in a local training flight in Novosibirsk. Shortly after takeoff, while climbing, the left engine flamed out. The pilot in command lost control of the aircraft that stalled and crashed in a wooded area located one km northwest of the airfield. The copilot was killed while three other occupants were injured.
Probable cause:
It was determined that the flight engineer mishandled the fuel system, causing the left engine to flame out. The following factors were considered as contributory:
- the pilot in command was insufficiently trained,
- poor crew coordination,
- lack of crew resource management.
