A bit more than an hour later, the crew returned to Krasnoyarsk-Severny Airport and completed an emergency landing in a grassy area located 100 meters to the right of the main runway. The airplane landed at a speed of 205 km/h. After a course of about 70 meters, the right main gear collapsed and the airplane rolled for few dozen meters before coming to rest in flames. All 53 occupants escaped the cabin but three passengers were seriously injured by fire. Two of the survivors died from their injuries two and three days later.
