The building is very large, many acres in size, and the perspective of the camera's viewpoint emphasizes the section of the building that is nearer to the camera. You can't say the building and the plane are equally distant, the majority of the building is much closer. Also keep in mind that the plane approached the building at an angle, coming somewhat towards the camera rather than moving exactly perpendicular to it. I don't think the plane looks incredibly small in that picture, I think it looks exactly as big as I would expect it to look, given the angles involved, and given the fact that it was skidding along the ground without its landing gear.
