The crew was completing a training flight from Kirovograd to Sukhumi and back to Kirovograd. Following a night takeoff from Sukhumi-Babushara Airport, while climbing at an altitude of 120 meters and a speed of 250 km/h, the crew raised the flaps when the airplane entered an uncontrolled descent until it struck at a speed of 370 km/h the water surface and crashed into the Black Sea about 690 meters offshore. A crew member was rescued while six other occupants were killed. The aircraft was destroyed upon impact and sank.

From May 28 till May 31, the airplane was dispatched in Kalinovskaya for spraying missions on behalf of the Lenin's kolkhoz. While parked, a technician decided to takeoff and to make a local tour. Shortly after takeoff, while flying at a height of 500 meters, he lost control of the airplane that descended by at an angle of 60° and crashed in flames in an open field. The sole occupant was killed.

Following an uneventful flight from Lisbon, the crew started the descent to Havana-Jose Martí-Rancho Boyeros Airport and was cleared for an approach to runway 05. The crew encountered poor visibility due to foggy conditions and failed to realize his altitude was too low after he initiated the final approach too late, causing the aircraft to be 64 meters below the minimum descent altitude. The aircraft turned onto runway heading at a distance of 9 km from the runway threshold. According to the approach procedure, the aircraft should have done so at 14-15 km from the threshold. Despite he did not have the runway in sight, the captain decided to continue to descent until the aircraft passed below the decision height. At a distance of 1,820 meters from the runway threshold, the aircraft was approaching at a speed of 280 km/h and at a height of 23-25 meters when it struck power cables. Elevators separated and flaps on the right wing were torn off. The airplane then struck 22 palms, continued to descent until it crashed in flames 1,270 meters short of runway and 121 meters to the right of its extended centerline. Two passengers were seriously injured while 67 other occupants were killed.

The single engine airplane departed Tavda Airport on flight SU801CH to Tyumen, carrying 12 passengers and two pilots on board. After takeoff, the crew was cleared to climb to an altitude of 150 meters and continued to the south. Few minutes later, while cruising in marginal weather conditions with rain falls, limited visibility of 2 km and low clouds, at an estimated altitude of 175 meters, the airplane collided with an Aeroflot Antonov AN-2 registered CCCP-15925 that was completing a service from Tyumen to Tavda with 15 people on board. Following the collision, both aircraft went out of control, entered a dive and crashed in flames in an open field located 18 km south of Tavda. Both wreckages were found 392 meters from each other and all 29 occupants on both aircraft were killed.

The single engine airplane was completing flight SU397 from Tyumen to Tavda with 13 passengers and two pilots on board. While approaching Tavda from the south, the crew encountered marginal weather conditions with rain falls, limited visibility of 2 km and low clouds. At an estimated altitude of 175 meters, the airplane collided with an Aeroflot PZL-Mielec AN-2TP registered CCCP-44992 that was completing a service from Tavda to Tyumen and just departed Tavda Airport few minutes earlier with 14 people on board. Following the collision, both aircraft went out of control, entered a dive and crashed in flames in an open field located 18 km south of Tavda. Both wreckages were found 392 meters from each other and all 29 occupants on both aircraft were killed.

The airplane departed Ayanka Airstrip at 1332LT on a flight to Tilichiki, carrying one passenger, three crew members and a load of 10 empty fuel barrels. Sixteen minutes later, while cruising at an altitude of 1,800 meters in good weather conditions, the pilot informed ATC about a strong smell of fuel on board and elected to return to Ayanka. Six minutes later, engine fuel pressure dropped while the fuel smell was still present. A minute and 35 seconds later, the engine caught fire. The crew reduced his altitude and attempted an emergency landing when, at an altitude of 400 meters, the airplane nosed down and crashed by an angle of 60° in a small icy lake located 20 km southeast of Ayanka. The aircraft was destroyed and all four occupants were killed.

The crew completed several spraying missions that day on behalf of the sovkhoz of Koptevsky. At the end of the afternoon, the crew took off and after departure, the pilot-in-command made a sharp turn to the left when the airplane banked left to an angle of 60° then stalled and crashed in flames in an open field located 4 km northwest of Koptevka. The copilot was killed while the captain was seriously injured. The aircraft was destroyed by a post crash fire. The captain died from his injuries seven days later.
