Narrative:
The crew was approaching Rogachevo, Novaya Zemlya at night during snowfall.
The aircraft touched down with 1.85 g, about 5 metres to the right of the runway's centreline as the crew was blinded by a snow flurry which reflected the landing lights. The aircraft bounced, touched down again with 1.8 g after 160 metres and veered off the runway to the right. The right main gear collided with a spot-light, causing the right wing to touch the ground.
