The 1996 Abakan Ilyushin Il-76 crash occurred on 27 November 1996 near Abakan Airport (ABA), Russia involving a Russian Air Force Ilyushin Il-76MD transport aircraft, registered as RA-78804 killing all 23 people onboard including 14 passengers.[1]
The plane was on a cargo flight from Moscow Zhukovsky Airport to Petropavlovsk-Kamchatsky Airport, with a scheduled stopover in Abakan. Carrying an official payload of 30 tonnes (66,000 lb), the aircraft underwent refueling at Abakan before attempting takeoff. However, during the climb-out phase, the plane ascended with an unusually shallow climb angle, deviating from standard procedures. Instead of initiating a turn 4 km from the runway at a minimum altitude of 200 m, the aircraft continued on a straight path until reaching the designated altitude. By this point, the plane was turning towards rising terrain. The aircraft collided with a hillside 14 km beyond the runway, resulting in a fire. 23 people died instantly in impact with no survivors.[2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9]
