The collision force due to slab pull at the Peru-Chile Trench should oppose this driving force, and would have produced the Cordilleran tectonics in the Andes.
It has been generally believed that the continental plate is driven by suction force at the trench, and the mantle drag is operating as a resistive force.
The stress modeling of the South American plate, taking into account the vertical and horizontal force variation due to structural variation of the plate, shows that the South American plate is driven toward west by the mantle drag (Seno and Saito, in preparation).

 Online NewsHour: Tragic Mishap -- April 23, 2001
And I think you'll find when this investigation is finished, that there's probably a screaming match inside that airplane between the Peruvian liaison officer and air force officer and the contractors, with the Peruvian finally making the decision to, you know, to accentuate this thing and causing this incredibly tragic event to occur.
Over the weekend, Peru's Foreign Minister, Javier Perez de Cuellar said, "the Peruvian authorities are responsible, and we regret what happened." At the same time, Peru's air force defended its action, and said the missionary plane had no flight plan, entered Peruvian airspace unannounced, and didn't respond to radio signals.
So thousands of lives were saved by the idea of that, the air bridge was interdicted, but unfortunately you also have a river bridge, you also have a land bridge, and you also have a sea bridge coming out of Peru.

 Antiquity of Man Inca conquest
While the Spanish stayed near the coast, their small force was of no concern to the emperor because as soon as the Spanish began to move into the mountains they would be delivering themselves into his hands; this is a view also strengthened by the fact that in Inca circles power was derived from numbers.
Thus, although later in the conquest they were able to increasingly turn to non-military means to secure and expand their social and political control, in the early stages of the conquest the Spanish did not enjoy that luxury - the Inca state had to be secured by force, by arms.
The argument that Spanish victory was ultimately made possible by the political divisions existing within the empire rests on the support given by his allies to Pizarro; this included tribes such as the Canaris who were opposed to Inca rule.

In November, while the newly victorious Atahualpa and his battle-hardened army of 80,000 were relaxing with the hot springs in the town of Cajamarca, before their planned triumphal entry into Cuzco, Francisco Pizarro entered the city with a force of 168.
Cuzco was too far up in the mountains and far from the sea to serve as the Spanish capital of Peru, he founded the city of Lima, still the capital of that nation.
Cajamarca was not the only occasion in 1532 on which Western technology was able to trounce Incan technology – for technology such as guns and steel swords, rather than fighting skills and valour were what won the day.
