I can not see the numbers "26" though the numbers "22" are very clear on the adjacent runway.

Yeah - the number isn't painted on the runway. Interesting...(not that other checks shouldn't have caught it.)

I think the biggest problem here is the airport design. That looked like an accident waiting to happen, and I would just bet this type of incident has almost happened before in the past. No way should you have 2 departure points so close to each other, with one of the runways not being able to accommodate jet aircraft. Hindsight is 20/20, but I'm thinking they probably should've closed this runway years ago. You don't NEED 2 runways at an airport the size of LEX. It's nice to have, but not a necessity. So maybe the "airport authority" should bear some responsibility for this accident. Just a thought.
