CKS690 taking off on Runway 27.
Kalitta Air(Connie) 690, Boeing 747-400 (quad-jet)

EDV5117 landing on intersecting Runway 18C.
Endeavor Air 5117, Canadair Regional Jet CRJ-900 (twin-jet)



Seems to me CKS690 was told 'line up and wait,' read back correctly, then after a bit just started rolling for take off. Sometimes every transmission isn't caught but I never heard them receive clearance.

This sort of thing happens more than we know.

Correct. Connie 690 screwed up. Almost big time. Kudos to the ATC for catching it quickly.

But watching the whole thing...it didn’t look like the incoming flight intersected runway 27 that Connie 690 was on.

Almost a replay of what happened on Tannerife (sic?) back in the 70’s?. KLM 747 is told to hold but begins rolling for take-off after a brief pause. Plows into a Pan-Am 747 trying to find its way to a taxi-way after being directed onto the runway...

No reason to be in such a rush.

Was Harrison Ford the pilot?

Mayor Peter Eater is too busy to do his job as SecTrans.

690 acknowledged “wait” and then didn’t...
