Examples: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/National_Airlines_Flight_102 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/National_Airlines_Flight_102 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alaska_Airlines_Flight_261 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alaska_Airlines_Flight_261 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Japan_Air_Lines_Flight_123 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Japan_Air_Lines_Flight_123 The last one was caused by a bad repair from a tail strike seven years earlier.
