Please show the last time a passenger airliner, with crew training and
equipment standards up to date crashed into a highrise building.


High-rises and mountains are somewhat similar in aviation, in that they

are
both large, tall, and easy to miss - one would think. They both become

more
crucial when taking off or landing, as these activities bring you

closer,
with less 'wiggle room'.

The following rough list for the most part contains only accidents

involving
substantial loss of life. There have been some others.


1992 El Al 747 impacted an apartment building in Amsterdam.

1995 Dec. 20, nr. Cali, Colombia: American Airlines Boeing 757 crashed

in
Andean Mountains.

1996 Feb. 29, near Arequipa, Peru: Faucett Airline Boeing 737 crashed

into
mountain as it prepared to land.


1998 Feb. 2, Mindanao, Philippines: Cebu Pacific Air DC-9 crashed

into a
mountain;


2003 Feb. 19, nr. Shahdad, Iran: Iranian military Ilyushin Il-76MD
crashed in the Sirach Mountains. All 276 on board were killed.



In the last 50 years, please list those modern passenger airliners flown
by a major US=flag airline that on a bright, sunny day, crashed into a
major office building in a major US city.

Start your list he


Close enough Aeromexico in to Cerritos, Calif.
