Narrative:
Due to strong winds from the west, cvg was using runway 27 for all arrival and departure operations. The arrs were closely spaced, and a line of planes waiting for takeoff was growing longer as the tower tried to squeeze departing aircraft in between the arrs. Tower cleared us into position and hold behind a landing dornier 328, and told us to be ready to go, because a heavy B767 was on a 2 mi final. We sat in position with the engines spooled-up as the do-jet took his sweet time clearing the runway. ATC eventually cleared us for takeoff, but midway through our roll, ATC told the B767 to go around and climb to 3000 ft on the runway heading. As we lifted off, the B767 called the tower and requested a heading change so as not to run over us. Tower did not respond. So, we made a rather shallow initial climb and accelerated to 200 KTS before re-establishing a normal climb. Tower eventually turned the B767.
Original NASA ASRS Text
Title: CL65 DEPARTING CVG EXPERIENCED CONFLICT WITH GAR ACFT.
Narrative: DUE TO STRONG WINDS FROM THE W, CVG WAS USING RWY 27 FOR ALL ARR AND DEP OPS. THE ARRS WERE CLOSELY SPACED, AND A LINE OF PLANES WAITING FOR TKOF WAS GROWING LONGER AS THE TWR TRIED TO SQUEEZE DEPARTING ACFT IN BTWN THE ARRS. TWR CLRED US INTO POS AND HOLD BEHIND A LNDG DORNIER 328, AND TOLD US TO BE READY TO GO, BECAUSE A HEAVY B767 WAS ON A 2 MI FINAL. WE SAT IN POS WITH THE ENGS SPOOLED-UP AS THE DO-JET TOOK HIS SWEET TIME CLRING THE RWY. ATC EVENTUALLY CLRED US FOR TKOF, BUT MIDWAY THROUGH OUR ROLL, ATC TOLD THE B767 TO GO AROUND AND CLB TO 3000 FT ON THE RWY HDG. AS WE LIFTED OFF, THE B767 CALLED THE TWR AND REQUESTED A HDG CHANGE SO AS NOT TO RUN OVER US. TWR DID NOT RESPOND. SO, WE MADE A RATHER SHALLOW INITIAL CLB AND ACCELERATED TO 200 KTS BEFORE RE-ESTABLISHING A NORMAL CLB. TWR EVENTUALLY TURNED THE B767.
