On August 27, 2006, Comair Flight 5191 crashed during an attempted takeoff from the wrong runway at Lexington’s Blue Grass Airport, killing all 49 aboard, save the co-pilot, James Polehinke, who has now become the subject of a documentary. A Chicago film maker will feature Polehinke in the movie “Sole Survivor,” which creates accounts of the lives of people who became sole survivors of commuter aircraft crashes. It will be released this fall. Polehinke was at the controls of Comair’s CRJ-100 as it sped into the grass off the end of the airport’s shorter, narrower Runway 26. It had been cleared for the twice as wide and twice as long Runway 22. Polehinke awoke from a coma after the crash to learn he had facial fractures, a complex fracture of the pelvis, two fractures of the spine, and broken bones in his left leg, right foot and right hand. The film may show that wasn’t the worst of it.
