Narrative:
Runway 8R-26L at hnl was closed as per NOTAM. Takeoffs and lndgs in progress on runways 22L/right and runway 26R. Air carrier X cleared for a visual approach for runway 26R at honolulu with min separation from air carrier aircraft in front of us. Tower instructed us to remain off shore until turning final (SOP for noise). As other crew members monitored the touch down and roll out of the aircraft in front of us on 26R. I turned final at approximately 400-500 ft AGL (required for the lda-DME or visual approachs to runway 26R). As I rolled out on final (200-300 ft), I heard the tower instruct another aircraft to 'fly through the intersection and land long.' I then observed an small aircraft Y crossing the threshold of runway 22L and fly through the intersection of 232L and 26R ahead of our aircraft. At 100-200 ft AGL, I initiated a go around. Our aircraft passed with 500 ft of small aircraft Y. In these 'unusual' circumstances, runway 26L-8R closed, and westerly winds, honolulu tower attempts to maintain relatively normal traffic flow by having heavy jets land on 26R while light aircraft land across 26R on the 22 runways. Irrespective of the traffic conflicts, the procedure requires light aircraft to land across the wake of heavy jets on the cross runway. The situation is hazardous and should be addressed with special procedures.

Title: MULTIPLE RWY OP INTERSECTING RWYS ACR X MADE A GAR AFTER OBSERVING SMA Y FLY THROUGH INTERSECTING RWY.
Narrative: RWY 8R-26L AT HNL WAS CLOSED AS PER NOTAM. TKOFS AND LNDGS IN PROGRESS ON RWYS 22L/R AND RWY 26R. ACR X CLRED FOR A VISUAL APCH FOR RWY 26R AT HONOLULU WITH MIN SEPARATION FROM ACR ACFT IN FRONT OF US. TWR INSTRUCTED US TO REMAIN OFF SHORE UNTIL TURNING FINAL (SOP FOR NOISE). AS OTHER CREW MEMBERS MONITORED THE TOUCH DOWN AND ROLL OUT OF THE ACFT IN FRONT OF US ON 26R. I TURNED FINAL AT APPROX 400-500 FT AGL (REQUIRED FOR THE LDA-DME OR VISUAL APCHS TO RWY 26R). AS I ROLLED OUT ON FINAL (200-300 FT), I HEARD THE TWR INSTRUCT ANOTHER ACFT TO 'FLY THROUGH THE INTXN AND LAND LONG.' I THEN OBSERVED AN SMA Y XING THE THRESHOLD OF RWY 22L AND FLY THROUGH THE INTXN OF 232L AND 26R AHEAD OF OUR ACFT. AT 100-200 FT AGL, I INITIATED A GAR. OUR ACFT PASSED WITH 500 FT OF SMA Y. IN THESE 'UNUSUAL' CIRCUMSTANCES, RWY 26L-8R CLOSED, AND WESTERLY WINDS, HONOLULU TWR ATTEMPTS TO MAINTAIN RELATIVELY NORMAL TFC FLOW BY HAVING HVY JETS LAND ON 26R WHILE LIGHT ACFT LAND ACROSS 26R ON THE 22 RWYS. IRRESPECTIVE OF THE TFC CONFLICTS, THE PROC REQUIRES LIGHT ACFT TO LAND ACROSS THE WAKE OF HVY JETS ON THE CROSS RWY. THE SITUATION IS HAZARDOUS AND SHOULD BE ADDRESSED WITH SPECIAL PROCS.
