Emergency Services reported the crew had not reported any problems.
Baikal/Angara Transport Prosecution Office reported that at 12:58pm local time (03:58Z) the aircraft failed to communicate after going around for a second approach. The office is investigating the circumstances.
The regional governor subsequently reported the aircraft was found burning about 15km (about 8.3nm) from Tynda. Rescue forces are on their way to the crash site. The governer corrected later, that there were 42, not 43 passengers on board, a woman had changed her mind in last minute due to family matters, and 6 crew. All 48 people on board perished in the crash.
A video from a search aircraft shows plumes of smoke rising from dense forest. There were no signs of survivors seen from the air.
The Interstate Aviation Committee (MAK) have opened an investigation into the crash.
On Jul 26th 2025 the MAK reported the magnetic tape of the FDR had been destroyed by the fire, however, the CVR was preserved. No failures of systems have been mentioned before the aircraft collided with the ground.
Russia's Ministry of Emergencies reported that rescuers have reached the crash site but did not find any survivors.
On Jul 25th 2025 Russia's Ministry of Transport (Rostransnador) reported, that the blackboxes of the aircraft have been recovered and are being sent to Moscow for decoding.
On Jul 30th 2025 Russia's Civil Aviation Authority (Rosaviatsia) announced:
The certificate of the Irkutsk airline Angara, which allowed the carrier's specialists to perform maintenance on aircraft and their components, was revoked.
The decision was made following an unscheduled inspection of the airline. It was conducted by Rostransnadzor with the participation of Rosaviatsia specialists.
The inspection, in particular, revealed violations in the activities of Angara as a maintenance organization.
For example, documentation was drawn up without the actual performance of work, and the necessary tools and equipment were not used.
The carrier's representatives agreed with these and other facts affecting flight safety at a meeting at Rostransnadzor.
Until now, Angara has not been able to provide a complete list of materials proving the absence of risks to prevent similar cases in the future. Therefore, the certificate has been cancelled — based on Article 64 (clause 3) of the Federal Aviation Rules (approved by the order of the Ministry of Transport of Russia dated October 18, 2024 No. 367.
Now, to service Angara aircraft, it is necessary to use only the services of certified third-party organizations.
On Feb 9th 2026 the MAK released their final report in Russian only (Editorial note: to serve the purpose of global prevention of the repeat of causes leading to an occurrence an additional timely release of all occurrence reports in the only world spanning aviation language English would be necessary, a Russian only release does not achieve this purpose as set by ICAO annex 13 and just forces many aviators to waste much more time and effort each in trying to understand the circumstances leading to the occurrence. Aviators operating internationally are required to read/speak English besides their local language, investigators need to be able to read/write/speak English to communicate with their counterparts all around the globe).
The report concludes the probable causes of the crash were:
The accident involving An-24RV RA-47315 occurred during daylight hours, in instrument meteorological conditions, while the aircraft was preparing a maneuver for an instrument landing approach. This occurred due to a discrepancy between the altitude reference level for the actual QNH pressure set on the barometric altimeters and the altitude reference level for the crew's assigned flight altitudes (QFE pressure). This resulted in the aircraft flying at an altitude approximately 600 m lower than the assigned altitude, resulting in the aircraft colliding with tree canopies and the ground.
The accident was the result of a combination of the following factors:
- the crew's actual lack of preparedness to fly to airfields that had switched to QNH pressure, leading to errors in the procedure for using the pressure values (QNH/QFE) at Tynda airfield; The controller's transmission of a QNH pressure value expressed in millimeters of mercury (mmHg) without requesting it from the crew;
- the crew's failure to ensure that the barometric pressure values used matched the assigned altitudes;
- the lack of instrumental monitoring of the aircraft's flight altitude by the air traffic controller due to the inoperability of the secondary radar equipment at Tynda Airfield;
- the crew's disabling of the SRPPZ (equivalent to GPWS) audible warning signal.
At the time of the approach the weather at Tynda was reported (no METARs available): visibility 9999 meters or better, light rain, scattered cloud at 210 meters, broken cloud at 600 meters, QNH 1002 hPa, winds varying from 330 to 040 degrees at 4 knots, braking action estimated good.
