Kalitta Air 690 is instructed to line up and wait on runway 27, and one of the pilots of the plane correctly reads back those instructions. However, for whatever reason, the pilots shortly begin their takeoff roll down the runway. At the same time, an Endeavor Air CRJ-900 operating on behalf of Delta Connection arriving from Minneapolis (MSP) is cleared to land on the intersecting runway, and touches down. Obviously having planes taking off and landing at the same time on intersecting runways is a big no-no.
We just had what could have been a major disaster a week or so ago at CVG. One coming in and one taking off with potential intersection. Not sure what the exact details were but it wasn't good in any case.
Stunning video! Superb take off!!
Thank you!
I remember watching this live. Looks fantastic in 4k

The phrase no pilot wants to hear. "Possible pilot deviation, advise when ready to copy a phone number."

Wow, surprising they still use perpendicular runways at the same time. Thankful a disaster was averted!
