Aeroflot Flight 7425 on the 10 July 1985 was operated by a three-engined Tupolev Tu-154B-2 which departed Tashkent for a flight to Leningrad. The aircraft was at cruising altitude of convert|11600|m at an airspeed of convert|400|km/h. The low airspeed close to the stall caused the aircraft to vibrate which the aircrew assumed was engine vibration. They reduced engine power to flight idle causing a drop in airspeed to convert|290|km/h. The aircrew tried to maintain altitude but the aircraft stalled and entered a flat spin crashing into the ground near Uchkuduk, Uzbekistan, which at that time was in the Soviet Union.

It's the worst air disaster in history of Soviet aviation.
