The NTSB is reviewing a runway incursion at Boston's Logan Airport where a Learjet took off without clearance, forcing a JetBlue flight to take evasive action. The agency has also released its preliminary report on the fatal crash of a Cessna Citation Latitude business jet in Connecticut. Further discussions cover a successful Cirrus CAPS parachute deployment following an in-flight icing encounter. The episode also touches on two separate fatal skydiving accidents that occurred in Texas on the same day.
