Circumstances:
The airplane departed Krasnodar on a flight to Moscow, carrying eight passengers and six crew members. After 5 hours and 30 minutes into the flight, the oil pressure in the right engine started to decrease and the engine vibrated. The pilot decided to continue to Moscow on one engine but 10 minutes later, the temperature of the cylinder head reached 230-240°. In such conditions, the crew diverted to the small airfield of Yegoryevsk that offers a runway of 600-650 metres long. An approach with a go around was planed. On descent, both engines were running smoothly and as the approach seems to be missed, the crew initiated a go around procedure but the right engine failed to respond and remained at low rpm. The airplane flew over the runway on its total length without landing then the base of the tail hit the roof of a building, causing the airplane to stall and to crash. All 14 occupants escaped with minor injuries and the airplane was damaged beyond repair.
Probable cause:
It was determined that the loss of oil pressure in the right engine was due to an insufficient quantity of oil in the tanks. No technical anomalies were found on the engines and the oil consumption was considered as normal.
