A BELL HELI ATX PLT IS 'BAITED' INTO LNDG WITHOUT CLRNC AT MSY; LA.

Narrative

THE TWR CTLR BECAME UPSET AT MY ACKNOWLEDGEMENT OF TFC CLOSE TO ME AND BEGAN TO VECTOR ME BACK AND FORTH OUTSIDE OF CLASS B AIRSPACE TO THE GND. THIS HAS NEVER HAPPENED BEFORE AND THE CTLR EVEN GAVE ME VECTORS OF OBJECTS INSTEAD OF HDGS; TO MY LNDG SITE; 3 MI FROM THE TWR. HE WAS PLAYING A GAME WITH ME AND KNEW I WAS UPSET AND TOLD ME TO CALL HIM IN THE TWR. I DID. HE BASICALLY WANTED TO ARGUE. I CALLED HIS SUPVR AND WAS TOLD THAT THEY WERE VERY BUSY AND APOLOGIZED FOR THE DELAY GETTING TO MY LNDG PAD. NOT MORE THAN 15 MINS LATER; THE SAME CTLR WAS STILL UPSET AT ME AND BAITED ME INTO OUR ROUTINE APCH TO OUR MSY BASE; CLRING ME DIRECT TO OUR FACILITY ON THE AIRFIELD. HE SAID NOTHING ELSE TO ME UNTIL I WAS FINISHING MY APCH. THEN HE CLRED ME TO TAXI TO PARKING AND SAID; 'BY THE WAY; I ONLY CLRED YOU TO COME OVER TO YOUR BASE; NOT TO LAND' AND THAT I HAD VIOLATED THE FARS. I HAVE TO ADMIT; I DID INTEND TO LAND AND WOULD HAVE WITHOUT HIS COMMENTS. I FEEL THAT HE INTENTIONALLY USED NONSTANDARD PHRASEOLOGY WITH ME; WANTING ME TO LAND WITHOUT HIM SAYING THE WORDS. AS A PART 135 ACR OPERATING THERE DAILY; I'VE NEVER HAD THIS HAPPEN BEFORE; AND I'VE NEVER HEARD THE TWR PLAY THESE GAMES WITH LARGER PART 121 OPERATORS.
