TCASII WAS NO HELP IN EVADING A CLOSE NMAC.

Narrative

APPROX 3 MINS BEFORE THE INCIDENT; CLRED BY CLT ATC FROM 8000 FT TO 9000 FT AND DIRECT THE CTF VOR. AT 9000 FT; 27 NM NW OF THE CTF VOR; WE RECEIVED A TA 900 FT ABOVE AND DSNDING. SINCE IT OCCURS OFTEN IN THAT AREA THAT JET TFC DSNDS THROUGH ITS ALT AND THEN RETURNS; WE DID NOT RESPOND TO THIS DSCNT. WHEN THE SECOND TA 500 FT ABOVE AND DSNDING WENT OFF; I THOUGHT THIS GUY IS REALLY BAD. A THIRD TA WENT OFF AND I WAS ABOUT TO VERIFY OUR ALT OF 9000 FT WHEN THE CLT CTLR ADVISED US 'TA; TURN R TO 090 DEGS; MLG 12 O'CLOCK HAS BEEN TOLD TO TURN TO 270 DEGS.' BEFORE WE VERBALLY COULD RESPOND THE TCASII GAVE US AN RA 'CLB; CLB NOW;' SHOWING TFC 12 O'CLOCK SAME ALT. WHILE TURNING TO 090 DEG HDG; I APPLIED FULL PWR AND BACK PRESSURE; SEEING THE MLG IN OUR 12 O'CLOCK POS GAINING FAST. THE RA STRENGTHENED TO 'INCREASE CLB; INCREASE CLB.' THE MLG PASSED US WITHIN 500 FT TO THE R. ACCORDING TO THE TCASII AND WHAT WE SAW; THE MLG NEVER LEFT ITS 9000 FT ALT. AFTER PASSING; THE CTLR CAME BACK ON; SOUNDING SHAKEN UP AND WAS RELIEVED BY ANOTHER CTLR. I FEEL THAT THESE NEAR MIDAIR INCIDENTS THAT OCCUR IN CLT AIRSPACE COULD BE PREVENTED IF A SOLID ARR/DEP PROC WAS ESTABLISHED AND FOLLOWED AT ALL TIMES. PLTS WHO USE THE CLT AIRSPACE FREQUENTLY KNOW AT ALL TIMES WHAT TO EXPECT AND CAN QUESTION ANY DEV. DCA; WHO MOST PLTS CONSIDER A HAZARDOUS ARPT; HAS THE SAME ARR/DEP PROC AS WELL AS VFR AND IFR GIVING THE PLTS THE OPPORTUNITY TO KNOW WHAT TO EXPECT OF THEIR CTLRS.
