Narrative:The An-2 spray plane departed from an airstrip near Sirna, Romania. At about 15 minutes after takeoff the crew noticed an anomaly in the engine cylinder head temperature indication and decided to land for inspection. They selected a landing site after a quick evaluation from the air.
The airplane landed with a tailwind on uneven terrain. The main undercarriage failed and the airplane swung 180 degrees before coming to rest.
