Delta Airlines flight 6107, bound for Atlanta, takes off from Blue Grass Airport in Lexington, Ky., early Monday morning, Aug. 28, 2006. Behind the plane is the wooded area illuminated by work lights where Comair flight 5191, flying the same route at approximately the same time, crashed the day before, killing 49 people. Investigators are examining why the commuter flight used a runway that was too short for takeoff.
