The 1962 LOT Vickers Viscount Warsaw crash occurred on 19 December 1962 when a Vickers Viscount 804, operated by LOT Polish Airlines on a flight from Brussels to Warsaw, crashed on landing.

Among the victims was Heinz Rauch, head of the East German statistical service, along with his wife and two children.

The plane was landing in harsh winter weather conditions, with dense near-ground fog, 6/8 overcast, fractostratus clouds at 250 meters, 7-km visibility and temperature of 5 degrees below 0.

One of the probable causes of stalling due to low speed was attributed to turboprop engines features which change the propellers pitch during acceleration.
