Flight Crew Took Evasive Action
Our aircraft came in close proximity of another aircraft shortly after takeoff on initial climbout departing JZI. We received a traffic alert on climbout at approximately 1;600 ft. on the 220 radial from JZI at approximately 3 miles. We attained visual contact shortly after the traffic alert and executed an evasive maneuver down and to the left to avoid the approaching aircraft. The approaching aircraft made no evasive maneuver and continued on what appeared to be a downwind entry for Runway 27 at JZI. Closest point of approach between both aircraft was approximately 200 ft.
A pilot departing JZI non-towered airport reported a NMAC.
