Mi-8 History.

I was just out last night and pulled a few fish. Thinking about the unfortunate crew and pax on this flight. Its awfully dark and cold up there,,,

As i understand the Mi-8 is one of the workhorses of Soviet.
What is the accident history in civilian use and particularly with regards to flight in ice ?
Has any of You had the honor to pilot this a/c and can anyone give us a hint of is weakness?
