PLT OF SMA ACFT DEVIATED FROM THE 'RIGHT OF WAY' RULE WHEN IT CONTINUED TO LAND OVER AN ACFT ON THE RWY (FAR 91 PT 113(G)). FARS.

Narrative

I WAS APCHING DENTON MUNICIPAL ARPT IN A SINGLE ENG (SMA ACFT). 2 MI E OF THE ARPT I ANNOUNCED MY INTENTION TO ENTER THE LNDG PATTERN AT MIDFIELD FOR A L DOWNWIND FOR RWY 17 ON THE CTAF. FROM PREVIOUS TFC COMS IT APPEARED THAT I WOULD BE ACFT #3 IN THE PATTERN AND UPON ENTRY TO THE TFC PATTERN; DOWNWIND AT MIDFIELD; I WAS INDEED THE 3RD ACFT IN THE PATTERN. I MADE A POS ANNOUNCEMENT WHILE DOWNWIND ON THE CTAF STATING POS AND INTENTION TO LAND; FULL STOP ON RWY 17. I VISUALLY LOCATED THE OTHER 2 ACFT IN THE PATTERN; ALLOWED FOR PROPER SEPARATION; AND BEGAN PREPARATION FOR LNDG. TURNING BASE I AGAIN RADIOED POS. AS I TURNED FINAL OR JUST PRIOR TO TURNING FINAL; A TWIN ENG ACFT (I THINK AN SMT ACFT); ANNOUNCED THAT IT WAS GOING TO POS AND HOLD ON RWY 17 FOR TFC. I ANNOUNCED MY TURN TO FINAL AS THE TWIN MOVED INTO THE THRESHOLD MARKINGS ON THE RWY. THE #2 ACFT IN THE PATTERN WAS DOING TOUCH-AND-GOES AND TOUCHED DOWN JUST PRIOR TO THE TWIN MOVING ONTO THE RWY. MY ATTN HAD BEEN ON THE #2 ACFT FOR SPACING AND ON LNDG MY ACFT. MY FULL UNDERSTANDING BASED ON THE RADIO XMISSION FROM THE TWIN WAS THAT HE WAS HOLDING FOR TFC AND SINCE I WAS TURNING FINAL; I ASSUMED THAT WAS FOR ME. I REMARKED TO MY PAX THAT I WOULD NOT POS AND HOLD ON A RWY WITH AN ACFT ON FINAL. I MADE SURE THAT MY LNDG WOULD NOT INTERFERE WITH THE TWIN BY LNDG LONGER THAN NORMAL AND COMING OVER THE THRESHOLD HIGHER THAN NORMAL. I ALSO THOUGHT THE PLT IN THE TWIN MUST BE IN A HURRY SINCE HE HAD PULLED OUT TO HOLD IN FRONT OF ME SO I EXITED THE RWY AS QUICKLY AS I COULD SAFELY. THEN THE PLT OF THE TWIN INITIATED A SERIES OF RADIO COMS WITH ME ON THE CTAF ABOUT HOW STUPID I WAS TO HAVE LANDED WITH HIM IN POS. I THEN REALIZED THAT HE HAD NOT INTENDED TO HOLD FOR ME; ONLY FOR THE #2 ACFT. I FEEL IN RETROSPECT THAT THE PLT IN THE TWIN MADE A MISTAKE IN NOT YIELDING RIGHT OF WAY TO ME; A LNDG ACFT ON FINAL. ALSO; AS A LEARNING EXPERIENCE FOR ME; I WILL NOT LAND ON A RWY THAT AN ACFT HAS TAKEN POS ON -- PERIOD; EVEN IF THEY ANNOUNCE THAT THEY ARE HOLDING BECAUSE IF THERE IS A COM BREAKDOWN AS HAPPENED IN THIS CASE; AN ACCIDENT COULD OCCUR. I BELIEVE THAT I OPERATED MY ACFT SAFELY IN THIS INCIDENT BUT I ASSUMED THE PLT OF THE TWIN WAS AWARE THAT I WAS ON FINAL. AGAIN; IT IS NOT WISE TO ASSUME ANYTHING; AND I WILL NOT MAKE ASSUMPTIONS AGAIN.
