In the early 1980s Aeroflot operated an An-12 freight service into Amsterdam, and CCCP-11107 is seen here after an early-morning touchdown on runway 06. Only three months later, on 24 April 1982, during the take-off from Novy Urengoi in western Siberia, this aircraft ran off the runway and was destroyed by fire.
