CH-53 PILOT REPORTS CRJ200 TAXI INTO POSITION AND HOLD AS HE IS ON SHORT FINAL FOR RWY 23 AT OAJ; CAUSING GAR.

Narrative

WHILE CONDUCTING MULTIPLE TAKEOFFS AND LANDINGS ON RUNWAY 23 AT OAJ; WE WERE ON FINAL APPROACH TO RUNWAY 23. A CRJ AIRCRAFT WAS WAITING AT THE HOLD SHORT. WE TURNED FINAL AND MADE A CALL. WE RAISED THE NOSE OF THE AIRCRAFT TO SLOW DOWN TO LAND NEAR THE RUNWAY NUMBERS. WHILE SLOWING DOWN IN A NOSE HIGH ATTITUDE; WE HEARD THE CRJ SAY THAT HE WAS GOING TO POSITION AND HOLD ON RWY 23. I DO NOT KNOW WHY AN AIRCRAFT WOULD EVER POSITION AND HOLD ON A NON-TOWERED AIRPORT; BUT HE DID. MAYBE HE WAS IN A HURRY TO DEPART AND AWAITING A CLEARANCE FROM WILMINGTON APPROACH. IT WAS CLEAR THAT HE HAD NO IDEA ABOUT ANY OTHER AIRCRAFT OTHER THAN HIS OWN. HE OBVIOUSLY DID NOT CHECK THE FINAL APPROACH CORRIDOR FOR RWY 23 BECAUSE IT WOULD BE DIFFICULT FOR HIM TO MISS A 70000 LB HELICOPTER ON FINAL APPROACH. BECAUSE HE TOOK THE RUNWAY EXACTLY WHERE WE WERE GOING TO LAND; WE WERE FORCED TO ABORT OUR LNDG. THIS IS A DANGEROUS MANEUVER GIVEN THE SLOW AIRSPEED AND LOW ALTITUDE IN A LARGE HELICOPTER. HAD WE NOT ABORTED THIS LANDING; THERE WOULD HAVE BEEN A COLLISION AND LIKELY A LOSS OF SEVERAL LIVES. FEDERAL AVIATION REGULATION 91.113 SAYS THAT THE AIRCRAFT ON FINAL HAS THE RIGHT OF WAY. THIS GUY CLEARLY CUT ME OFF WHEN I WAS ON FINAL. THESE CRJ AIRCRAFT THAT ARE OPERATING AT OAJ ARE A DANGER TO THEMSELVES AND OTHERS. THEY ALWAYS FLY IFR AND ARE USED TO THE CONTROLLERS TELLING THEM WHERE THEY ARE AND WHAT TO DO. THEY NEED TO BE TRAINED IN NON-TOWERED OPERATIONS BEFORE THEY CAUSE AN ACCIDENT HERE OR SOMEWHERE ELSE.
