Narrative:

Reno cannon international airport, runways 34L/right in use. Wind 290 degrees/12-15 KTS, VMC. A single engine low wing aircraft took off on 34R. Approximately 1 min later we were cleared for takeoff on 34L. After the 'gear up' call I put the gear handle up and looked out to clear our flight path. I called out 'traffic right 1 O'clock level, close aboard.' the captain saw the traffic approximately 400 ft away and banked left. A collision was not imminent but our distance horizontally needed to be increased. We passed by him in a matter of seconds and came back on course. Tower queried our left turn. The nugget 1 requires a right turn at the 'no' LMM. We told tower we were avoiding the aircraft at our right 3 O'clock and then we would proceed with the SID. Crosswind from the west (our left). If you maintain runway heading until the 'no' LMM the crosswind will push your ground track to the east. Into the other runway traffic about 800 ft away, if they are maintaining a runway heading ground track(?) the single engine aircraft was instructed to 'make a right 270 degree on course' after takeoff. He had not started that maneuver when we passed him. The 2 aircraft were too close, we wanted more airspace between us. If we had blindly followed the SID and made our right turn at the 'no' LMM our flight paths would have crossed, on departure, close to the ground.

Title: AN LGT HAD AN NMAC RIGHT AFTER TKOF AT RNO WITH AN SMA.

Narrative: RENO CANNON INTL ARPT, RWYS 34L/R IN USE. WIND 290 DEGS/12-15 KTS, VMC. A SINGLE ENG LOW WING ACFT TOOK OFF ON 34R. APPROX 1 MIN LATER WE WERE CLRED FOR TKOF ON 34L. AFTER THE 'GEAR UP' CALL I PUT THE GEAR HANDLE UP AND LOOKED OUT TO CLR OUR FLT PATH. I CALLED OUT 'TFC R 1 O'CLOCK LEVEL, CLOSE ABOARD.' THE CAPT SAW THE TFC APPROX 400 FT AWAY AND BANKED L. A COLLISION WAS NOT IMMINENT BUT OUR DISTANCE HORIZONTALLY NEEDED TO BE INCREASED. WE PASSED BY HIM IN A MATTER OF SECONDS AND CAME BACK ON COURSE. TWR QUERIED OUR L TURN. THE NUGGET 1 REQUIRES A R TURN AT THE 'NO' LMM. WE TOLD TWR WE WERE AVOIDING THE ACFT AT OUR R 3 O'CLOCK AND THEN WE WOULD PROCEED WITH THE SID. XWIND FROM THE W (OUR L). IF YOU MAINTAIN RWY HDG UNTIL THE 'NO' LMM THE XWIND WILL PUSH YOUR GND TRACK TO THE E. INTO THE OTHER RWY TFC ABOUT 800 FT AWAY, IF THEY ARE MAINTAINING A RWY HDG GND TRACK(?) THE SINGLE ENG ACFT WAS INSTRUCTED TO 'MAKE A R 270 DEG ON COURSE' AFTER TKOF. HE HAD NOT STARTED THAT MANEUVER WHEN WE PASSED HIM. THE 2 ACFT WERE TOO CLOSE, WE WANTED MORE AIRSPACE BTWN US. IF WE HAD BLINDLY FOLLOWED THE SID AND MADE OUR R TURN AT THE 'NO' LMM OUR FLT PATHS WOULD HAVE CROSSED, ON DEP, CLOSE TO THE GND.
