Planes simultaneously taking off on intersecting runways halted at Chicago's Midway Airport

Two passenger jets began to take off at the same time on intersecting runways at Chicago's Midway International Airport, prompting a controller to shout over the radio for one of the pilots to halt to avoid a collision, aviation officials said Wednesday. The Federal Aviation Administration was investigating Tuesday night's near miss in which each plane stopped about 2,000 feet from the runway intersection.
