----[Please read http://ercoupers.com/disclaimer.htm before following any advice in this forum.]---- Greg, It sounds like one of those times that you should have blasted him with both barrels. I had the same thing happen years back while landing at Night in a Piper Colt. A 210 came down Provo canyon, totally disregarded the fact that I was on down wind, came in on a left down wind, and crowded right in front of me. Really pisses me off when they think that just because they're in a fast aircraft they can butt in front of you. Of course, their justification is that they are fast and don't want to wait for the slower aircraft. To that I say "Kiss my As------" Kind or reminds me of idiot Bikers who will pass slow vehicles by going up the right on the shoulder just because they fit.
