Narrative:

My first officer was at the controls. WX conditions were excellent. Both my first officer and I were on runway 18R localizer frequency, on base leg, when approach control cleared us for a right turn and a visual approach to runway 18R. We captured runway 18R localizer between 'tomme' and the final approach fix 'sophe,' and first officer maintained it as well as GS for the entire approach. Prior to sophe, the aircraft was configured for landing and the before landing checklist was completed by myself. I contacted 'tower' prior to sophe, and tower cleared us to land runway 18R and gave winds from the southeast, at I believe 5 KTS. At 1000 ft AGL, I gave the '1000 ft above' callout. At approximately 2 mi out/700 ft AGL/1400 ft MSL, I noticed out of the corner of my eye, an aircraft, in a steep left bank (at least 45 degrees) at our altitude, going away from us, and its landing gear not extended. At the time we were on runway 18R localizer at 134 KTS, and at 700 ft AGL. I immediately told my first officer of the aircraft. A couple seconds later tower called out the traffic to us, as an 'overshoot' to runway 18L. I didn't initiate evasive action because the aircraft was going away from us. It was also going faster than us as well. When I first saw the aircraft it was at our altitude and 200 ft from us. I don't know how close it actually got, before I saw it. The aircraft was well beyond the center point of both final approach paths for runways 18L and 18R. It was actually closer to 'our' runway 18R, than 'his' runway 18L. Numerous passenger expressed their concern of what happened. A near miss report was filed with FAA area supervisor. The other aircraft was a cessna citation, operated by FBO. Also, our TCASII system was inoperative, the TCASII circuit breaker was pulled and collared.

Title: NMAC BTWN AN MD88 ON FINAL APCH AND A CESSNA CITATION JET OVERSHOOTING THE FINAL APCH ON A PARALLEL RWY.

Narrative: MY FO WAS AT THE CTLS. WX CONDITIONS WERE EXCELLENT. BOTH MY FO AND I WERE ON RWY 18R LOC FREQ, ON BASE LEG, WHEN APCH CTL CLRED US FOR A R TURN AND A VISUAL APCH TO RWY 18R. WE CAPTURED RWY 18R LOC BTWN 'TOMME' AND THE FINAL APCH FIX 'SOPHE,' AND FO MAINTAINED IT AS WELL AS GS FOR THE ENTIRE APCH. PRIOR TO SOPHE, THE ACFT WAS CONFIGURED FOR LNDG AND THE BEFORE LNDG CHKLIST WAS COMPLETED BY MYSELF. I CONTACTED 'TWR' PRIOR TO SOPHE, AND TWR CLRED US TO LAND RWY 18R AND GAVE WINDS FROM THE SE, AT I BELIEVE 5 KTS. AT 1000 FT AGL, I GAVE THE '1000 FT ABOVE' CALLOUT. AT APPROX 2 MI OUT/700 FT AGL/1400 FT MSL, I NOTICED OUT OF THE CORNER OF MY EYE, AN ACFT, IN A STEEP L BANK (AT LEAST 45 DEGS) AT OUR ALT, GOING AWAY FROM US, AND ITS LNDG GEAR NOT EXTENDED. AT THE TIME WE WERE ON RWY 18R LOC AT 134 KTS, AND AT 700 FT AGL. I IMMEDIATELY TOLD MY FO OF THE ACFT. A COUPLE SECONDS LATER TWR CALLED OUT THE TFC TO US, AS AN 'OVERSHOOT' TO RWY 18L. I DIDN'T INITIATE EVASIVE ACTION BECAUSE THE ACFT WAS GOING AWAY FROM US. IT WAS ALSO GOING FASTER THAN US AS WELL. WHEN I FIRST SAW THE ACFT IT WAS AT OUR ALT AND 200 FT FROM US. I DON'T KNOW HOW CLOSE IT ACTUALLY GOT, BEFORE I SAW IT. THE ACFT WAS WELL BEYOND THE CTR POINT OF BOTH FINAL APCH PATHS FOR RWYS 18L AND 18R. IT WAS ACTUALLY CLOSER TO 'OUR' RWY 18R, THAN 'HIS' RWY 18L. NUMEROUS PAX EXPRESSED THEIR CONCERN OF WHAT HAPPENED. A NEAR MISS RPT WAS FILED WITH FAA AREA SUPVR. THE OTHER ACFT WAS A CESSNA CITATION, OPERATED BY FBO. ALSO, OUR TCASII SYS WAS INOP, THE TCASII CIRCUIT BREAKER WAS PULLED AND COLLARED.
