A Fayette County judge says today that lawyers for families of people killed on Comair Flight 51-91 can inspect the airport on September 27th, the one-month anniversary of the crash.
Circuit Judge Pamela Goodwine issued the order on behalf of the family of Rebecca Adans, one of the first to sue Comair as a result of the crash.
Bluegrass Airport announced yesterday that it was delaying a taxiway construction project pending the investigation. But an airport attorney today told the judge that if the project was delayed much beyond a month, it could prevent the airport from buying enough asphalt before winter.
Goodwine agreed with the concerns and set the date for inspection of the taxiway and runways.
Goodwine also ordered that any family that can't have a representative present on September 27th be entitled to look at the evidence collected by others.
