NEAR MISS RPTED AND EVASIVE ACTION TAKEN WHEN A TURBOPROP SCHEDULED CARRIER CREW IS CLEARED FOR TKOF AND THEN OBSERVES TFC LNDG OPPOSITE DIRECTION.

Narrative

OUR ACFT WAS HOLDING SHORT OF RWY 33 FOR DEP. WE WERE ASKED TO HOLD SHORT FOR TFC. BECAUSE WE WERE ON THE TXWY CTRLINE; WE DID NOT HAVE A VIEW OF THE DEP PATH WE WOULD TAKE. TWR ADVISED WE WERE CLRED FOR TKOF; IF WE COULD DO SO WITHOUT DELAY. SINCE WE DID NOT NEED A DELAY; WE WERE ABLE TO ACCEPT THE CLRNC. WE DEPARTED RWY 33 WITHOUT DELAY; AND SAW TFC ON FINAL FOR RWY 15 (SAME ARR PATH AS OUR DEP PATH). OUR DEP WARRANTED A TURN 10 DEGS RIGHT OF THE CTRLINE; AND WE FOLLOWED THAT INSTRUCTION; WHICH APPEARED TO ALLOW THE INBND ACFT A NORMAL APCH. THE INBND ACFT TOOK EVASIVE ACTION TO THE WEST; OFFSETTING ITS FINAL APCH COURSE. OUR ACFT DID APPEAR TOO CLOSE; AND I BELIEVE THAT IF I HAD SEEN THE ARRIVING ACFT PRIOR TO TKOF; I WOULD NOT HAVE ACCEPTED THE TKOF CLRNC. I BELIEVE THAT IF WE HAD HELD SHORT; THE NEAR MISS WOULD NOT HAVE OCCURRED. OUR CREW WAS UNAWARE OF THE PROXIMITY OF THE INBND ACFT. THERE WAS NO REASON STATED BY THE CTLR FOR THE 'NO DELAY' TKOF; ALTHOUGH WE ASSUMED IT WAS (DUE TO THE RADIO TFC WE HAD HEARD DURING OUR TAXI). IT WOULD HAVE BEEN BENEFICIAL TO HAVE THE CTLR STATE THE DISTANCE THE APCHING ACFT WAS AT. I AM UNSURE OF THE DISTANCE THAT THE ACFT WAS TO US; AS I WAS MANEUVERING FOR THE DEP; AND THE TERRAIN IS MOUNTAINOUS.
