They weren't crossing the runway they were going to depart on, but they
were certainly crossing an active runway. Runway 14 is never used for
landing (somebody told me it would scare the guys in the tower to have
planes get that close to them.) Small planes are often sent to land on
32 as to avoid interfering with commercial traffic on the longer parallel
runways. I remember the first time I was sent to take off on 14. I was
like, "One Four? What the heck is One Four?" You'd also never be sent
to depart from 32.

That would be useful information. Has anyone bothered to consult the
references in this note:

circumstances at specific locations.
