Narrative:

Approach cleared us for a visibility to runway 33L, and told us to call the tower at the hullz beacon. We were following another turbojet aircraft. At 1000' AGL the local controller cleared us to land and simultaneously cleared a turboprop light transport into position on runway 33L for an intersection departure at about midfield. I was hand flying the airplane from about 1200' AGL. My captain and engineer briefly discussed that the light transport was slow getting on to the runway following the landing of the turbojet we were following. The local controller cleared the light transport for takeoff as we passed through about 800' AGL. The light transport was slow to roll and the controller cancelled his takeoff clearance and told him to taxi off the runway due to arriving traffic (us). At 200' AGL the controller again cleared us to land. My captain acknowledged the clearance. At this point I was looking down the runway and while the light transport was still partially on the runway, it was moving, and I estimated it would be clear and not pose a conflict to our landing. Just as soon as my captain acknowledged the clearance to land, he yelled out, 'we've got to do something!' as he did this he knocked my hands off the throttles. I assumed he was taking control of the aircraft and said, 'you've got it.' he then yelled, 'go around.' as I was waiting for him to continue the go around he just sat there. I resumed control of the aircraft and seeing that the light transport was clear of the runway, except for a few ft of wing, and that it was moving down a high speed taxiway, that our engines had not spooled up, and that our airspeed had dropped to reference-5 I elected to land. I believe that by the time we touched down the light transport was clear of the runway, my captain does not. The local controller never cancelled our landing clearance. We had been flying all night from the west coast with a stop in chicago. I've been flying all nighters for about 6 months and averaging 78 hours per month, so I guess fatigue was a factor. Another factor was the captain's 'panic' and not following standard company procedures in calling for a go around. This is the second time in a month I have seen this man panic over a simple occurrence. He has 24 months to go to retirement, I hope he makes it.

Title: LGT ON APCH, LTT CLEARED FOR TKOF. LTT SLOW TO RESPOND, CLRNC CANCELLED. LGT LANDS AS LTT LEAVES RWY.

Narrative: APCH CLRED US FOR A VIS TO RWY 33L, AND TOLD US TO CALL THE TWR AT THE HULLZ BEACON. WE WERE FOLLOWING ANOTHER TURBOJET ACFT. AT 1000' AGL THE LCL CTLR CLRED US TO LAND AND SIMULTANEOUSLY CLRED A TURBOPROP LTT INTO POS ON RWY 33L FOR AN INTXN DEP AT ABOUT MIDFIELD. I WAS HAND FLYING THE AIRPLANE FROM ABOUT 1200' AGL. MY CAPT AND ENGINEER BRIEFLY DISCUSSED THAT THE LTT WAS SLOW GETTING ON TO THE RWY FOLLOWING THE LNDG OF THE TURBOJET WE WERE FOLLOWING. THE LCL CTLR CLRED THE LTT FOR TKOF AS WE PASSED THROUGH ABOUT 800' AGL. THE LTT WAS SLOW TO ROLL AND THE CTLR CANCELLED HIS TKOF CLRNC AND TOLD HIM TO TAXI OFF THE RWY DUE TO ARRIVING TFC (US). AT 200' AGL THE CTLR AGAIN CLRED US TO LAND. MY CAPT ACKNOWLEDGED THE CLRNC. AT THIS POINT I WAS LOOKING DOWN THE RWY AND WHILE THE LTT WAS STILL PARTIALLY ON THE RWY, IT WAS MOVING, AND I ESTIMATED IT WOULD BE CLR AND NOT POSE A CONFLICT TO OUR LNDG. JUST AS SOON AS MY CAPT ACKNOWLEDGED THE CLRNC TO LAND, HE YELLED OUT, 'WE'VE GOT TO DO SOMETHING!' AS HE DID THIS HE KNOCKED MY HANDS OFF THE THROTTLES. I ASSUMED HE WAS TAKING CTL OF THE ACFT AND SAID, 'YOU'VE GOT IT.' HE THEN YELLED, 'GO AROUND.' AS I WAS WAITING FOR HIM TO CONTINUE THE GO AROUND HE JUST SAT THERE. I RESUMED CTL OF THE ACFT AND SEEING THAT THE LTT WAS CLR OF THE RWY, EXCEPT FOR A FEW FT OF WING, AND THAT IT WAS MOVING DOWN A HIGH SPD TXWY, THAT OUR ENGS HAD NOT SPOOLED UP, AND THAT OUR AIRSPD HAD DROPPED TO REF-5 I ELECTED TO LAND. I BELIEVE THAT BY THE TIME WE TOUCHED DOWN THE LTT WAS CLR OF THE RWY, MY CAPT DOES NOT. THE LCL CTLR NEVER CANCELLED OUR LNDG CLRNC. WE HAD BEEN FLYING ALL NIGHT FROM THE W COAST WITH A STOP IN CHICAGO. I'VE BEEN FLYING ALL NIGHTERS FOR ABOUT 6 MONTHS AND AVERAGING 78 HRS PER MONTH, SO I GUESS FATIGUE WAS A FACTOR. ANOTHER FACTOR WAS THE CAPT'S 'PANIC' AND NOT FOLLOWING STANDARD COMPANY PROCS IN CALLING FOR A GO AROUND. THIS IS THE SECOND TIME IN A MONTH I HAVE SEEN THIS MAN PANIC OVER A SIMPLE OCCURRENCE. HE HAS 24 MONTHS TO GO TO RETIREMENT, I HOPE HE MAKES IT.
