good point... i was at LEX about 3 weeks before the crash and the runways are very confusing at the end they were at.....it was the middle of the day and i had to double check the airport diagram twice to make shure.... anyone could have made that mistake after becoming complacent..... gotta have sympathy for this guy....hope he gets back into aviation if thats what he wants to do
