Just saw on the news both are 'freight runners' and one pilot had minor bumps and bruises but nothing major.

Wow, a midair and both survived just about unscathed? I heard that freight dogs were a tough bunch, but dang.

Wait...at MKE? Did they have a fender bender on the ground?

First off they are Beech 99's and it wasnt 2 99's it was a 402 and a 99. I'm glad to hear there were no life threatening injuries. The news article is full of mis-informed crap as usual.

I like how the article's title is "No one injured in runway collision," yet the article goes on to say that it occured on a taxiway...

My dad was one of the sups on duty up in the tower, happened at A & A2. Glad everyone is okay. Don't they say these things come in threes? Everyone be careful out there.
