Aeroflot does its legendary thing:

An-26 crashes into cliff two miles from runway but it takes 24 hours to
locate the wreckage (!): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4X7XzTYoP9k

The last fatal airliner crash in the U.S. was in 2009:

I like the airport with "Aeroport" written on the side.
It reminds me of old Soviet adverts - "Fly planes!"
