Narrative:

We were taking off on runway 33. Note: runway 33 shortened to 6300 ft for takeoff due to construction. 17 degrees C; maximum performance takeoff required for weight (static takeoff). Conflicting traffic: high wing cessna landing runway 1 (crossing runway). We were given; 'position and hold runway 33. Be ready.' we taxied from taxiway J onto runway 33 overrun. We had to stop for static takeoff performance. We were; 'cleared for takeoff; traffic airbus 4 mi final.' we pwred up and rolled. I heard btv tower call; 'go around' to an aircraft landing runway 1 (and turn when able). We were accelerating quickly and I looked for the other aircraft. It was a cessna over the numbers at 100 ft for runway 1. I considered aborting! But; with the shortened runway and high aircraft weight; decided against it. The cessna continued flying over runway 1 for an uncomfortable amount of time (no turn) and I considered abort again; but this time it would be in the very high speed realm (110+ KTS). I determined we were outrunning/accelerating the crossing traffic and continued. Finally; the cessna turned hard left. Our takeoff was normal. In my opinion; spacing and safety were compromised. In retrospect; I should have and will abort in a similar situation again. I also would not have taken off (accepted the clearance) had I known the other aircraft was short final for a crossing runway. Tower; trying to squeeze us out between arrs for runway 33 (airbus 4 mi final) and training aircraft using runway 1; made for a very unsafe event. The 2 aircraft were just too close.

Title: CRJ DEP FROM BTV ON TKOF ROLL RWY 33 OBSERVED LNDG CESSNA TFC FOR RWY 1; TWR ISSUED L TURN GAR TO CESSNA.

Narrative: WE WERE TAKING OFF ON RWY 33. NOTE: RWY 33 SHORTENED TO 6300 FT FOR TKOF DUE TO CONSTRUCTION. 17 DEGS C; MAX PERFORMANCE TKOF REQUIRED FOR WT (STATIC TKOF). CONFLICTING TFC: HIGH WING CESSNA LNDG RWY 1 (XING RWY). WE WERE GIVEN; 'POS AND HOLD RWY 33. BE READY.' WE TAXIED FROM TXWY J ONTO RWY 33 OVERRUN. WE HAD TO STOP FOR STATIC TKOF PERFORMANCE. WE WERE; 'CLRED FOR TKOF; TFC AIRBUS 4 MI FINAL.' WE PWRED UP AND ROLLED. I HEARD BTV TWR CALL; 'GO AROUND' TO AN ACFT LNDG RWY 1 (AND TURN WHEN ABLE). WE WERE ACCELERATING QUICKLY AND I LOOKED FOR THE OTHER ACFT. IT WAS A CESSNA OVER THE NUMBERS AT 100 FT FOR RWY 1. I CONSIDERED ABORTING! BUT; WITH THE SHORTENED RWY AND HIGH ACFT WT; DECIDED AGAINST IT. THE CESSNA CONTINUED FLYING OVER RWY 1 FOR AN UNCOMFORTABLE AMOUNT OF TIME (NO TURN) AND I CONSIDERED ABORT AGAIN; BUT THIS TIME IT WOULD BE IN THE VERY HIGH SPD REALM (110+ KTS). I DETERMINED WE WERE OUTRUNNING/ACCELERATING THE XING TFC AND CONTINUED. FINALLY; THE CESSNA TURNED HARD L. OUR TKOF WAS NORMAL. IN MY OPINION; SPACING AND SAFETY WERE COMPROMISED. IN RETROSPECT; I SHOULD HAVE AND WILL ABORT IN A SIMILAR SITUATION AGAIN. I ALSO WOULD NOT HAVE TAKEN OFF (ACCEPTED THE CLRNC) HAD I KNOWN THE OTHER ACFT WAS SHORT FINAL FOR A XING RWY. TWR; TRYING TO SQUEEZE US OUT BTWN ARRS FOR RWY 33 (AIRBUS 4 MI FINAL) AND TRAINING ACFT USING RWY 1; MADE FOR A VERY UNSAFE EVENT. THE 2 ACFT WERE JUST TOO CLOSE.
