Crash
On 2 December 1981 an Il-22 was operating a transport flight on the Novosibirsk (Tolmachevo) — Domna route. It was carrying command personnel; on board were officers of the command and headquarters of the 33rd Missile Army. Due to incorrectly set pressure on the altimeters, the error in determining altitude was about 500 metres. During the approach to Domna airfield the aircraft collided with Titovskaya Sopka, broke apart and burned. 31 people were killed, including the deputy army commander, Major General F. I. Korsun. 1 passenger survived, Major A. Vysotsky.
