Takeoff from Moscow-Bykovo Airport was completed by night. Shortly after liftoff, during the initial climb, the captain ordered to switch off the landing light and to raise the undercarriage. The aircraft encountered problems to gain height and banked left, causing the left engine and its propeller to hit the ground. After a course of some 150 meters, the aircraft hit a telephone pole and wires and then crashed in flames in a garden. Five passengers and the radio operator were killed while 8 other people were injured, some of them seriously. The remaining then occupants were unhurt. The aircraft was destroyed by impact forces and a post crash fire.

The crew was engaged in a test flight following modification on the engines by GVF (Grazhdansky Vozdushnyi Flot). The final approach to Vnukovo Airport was completed in low visibility due to foggy conditions, when the aircraft hit a hill and crashed about 10 km northeast of the airport. The occupant fate remains unknown.

The crew was performing a positioning flight from Kimry-Borki to Moscow-Zakharkovo. Few minutes after takeoff, the left engine lost oil pressure and power. The captain elected to make an emergency landing but the aircraft crashed in a wooded area located in Taldom, about 13 km southeast of Borki Airport. The aircraft was destroyed and all five crew members were injured. At the time of the accident, weather conditions were poor with a cloud base at 100 meters and an horizontal visibility limited to two km. It appears that the crew did not receive any permission to complete this positioning flight to Moscow.

The airplane was on a delivery flight from Moscow to Leningrad-Koltushi Airport and has to be transferred from the Soviet Air Force to the Russian Hydro and Meteo Services (Gidrometeosluzhba).

The crew was engaged in a local training flight in Moscow. While flying at an altitude of 400-450 meters, the crew initiated an engine failure when the aircraft lost speed while performing a steep turn to the left. The aircraft went upside down and crashed in Naberezhnaya, in the suburb of Moscow. All five occupants were killed. It was reported that both passengers were illegal.

One minute after takeoff, while climbing at a height of some 50 metres, the aircraft banked left to an angle of 30°, lost speed and altitude, then hit tree tops and crashed in a wooded area located 3 km from the airport. Four crew members were killed while a fifth crew and the passenger were seriously injured.

On approach to Moscow-Vnukovo Airport, the crew was instructed to stack over the area due to poor weather conditions. Four times, the pilot attempted to land, but was forced to make a go around. After 75 minutes, the pilot informed ATC he was short of fuel and was assisted because one of the radio-compass was out of service. On final approach, both engines failed simultaneously and the aircraft stalled and crashed few hundred yards short of runway. A passenger was killed while all other occupants were rescued. The aircraft was written off. Most of the passenger were flying to Moscow to take part in celebrations of the October Revolution.

On approach to Moscow, the crew was instructed to stack over the airport due to poor weather conditions. More than two hours later, the crew informed ATC that he was short of fuel and received the permission to attempt to land. On final approach, by low visibility due to foggy conditions, the captain was unable to locate the runway and decided to make a go around. The airplane climbed to a height of 15 meters and then stalled and crashed in a wooded area located 700 meters short of runway threshold. Thirteen passengers were killed while 13 other occupants were injured. Most of the passenger were flying to Moscow to take part in celebrations of the October Revolution.

The flight from Voronezh to Moscow-Vnukovo was cancelled due to poor weather in Voronezh. Eventually, the crew left Voronezh two days later on a ferry flight to Moscow. On approach, weather conditions were poor and the crew was forced to stack over the area. More than two hours later, the crew informed ATC that he was short of fuel and requested an immediate landing when the aircraft crashed in Yamshchina, about 12 km northwest of Vnukovo Airfield. All five crew members were killed. At the time of the accident, 17 other aircraft were stacking in the area and awaiting for weather improvement to land in Vnukovo Airport.
