As posted previously, the Movie Data Base (www.imdb.com) is a good source.
Type "aviation", "airline" etc in the search field and click "keyword" on the drop-down menu.
You will get around 1500 titles. More if you dig around a little.
By the way, some of the best "movies" are actually made as TV films. "Pandora's Clock" (1996) for example is great. There are also many documentary-style TV dramas made ("Mayday" and "Black Box" series) that dal with various disasters, crashes and other accidents.
