Potentially catastrophic mistakes on runways and operational errors have been increasing in the airspace surrounding Midway and O'Hare International airports.

Since 2003, 52 runway incursions have been reported at O'Hare and Midway by the Federal Aviation Administration. A CBS 2 investigation uncovered many more incidents of incursions reported by NASA during the same time.
