Default Comair crash F/O is only survivor

First officer said to survive crash
MSNBC.com

The only survivor, believed to be the flight’s first officer, according to airport director Michael Gobb, was in surgery at the University of Kentucky hospital on Sunday morning.

Bornhorst identified the three crew members as Capt. Jeffrey Clay, who was hired by Comair in 1999, first officer James M. Polehinke, who was hired in 2002, and flight attendant Kelly Heyer, hired in 2004.

a controller at Blue Grass said the CRJ took off on Rwy 26. Isn't that runway fairly short?
