Aeroflot Flight 411 was a four-engined Ilyushin Il-62 that was departing Sheremetyevo Airport, Moscow on a flight to Senegal when it crashed and was destroyed by fire shortly after take-off.[1][2]

The flightcrew had engine fire warning illuminated shortly after take-off and the pilot shut down two engines and tried to return to Sheremetyevo Airport.[1] While trying to return to the airport on two engines, the pilots lost control of the Il-62 which crashed into a field and burnt out.[1] It was reported that the fire warnings were false.[1]
