BE20 PIC HAS VERBAL CONFLICT WITH CAK APCH CTL OVER APCH SEQUENCING TO CAK ARPT.

Narrative

I WAS SINGLE PLT; PART 91; CAPT OF KING AIR B200. I WAS ON AN IFR FLT PLAN ENRTE FROM KZZV TO KCAK AT 7000 FT CTLED BY ZID. WHEN HANDED OFF TO AKRON-CANTON APCH; I WAS ABOUT 20 NM SSW OF THE ARPT AND 10 NM FROM CLASS C AIRSPACE. APCH CTLR TOLD ME TO 'ANTICIPATE VECTORS TO ILS APCH TO RWY 23.' I RESPONDED THAT I HAD A VISUAL ON THE ARPT AND REQUESTED VECTORS TO VISUAL APCH RWY 23. WX WAS SEVERE CLR. CTLR RESPONDED IN A VERY AUTHORITARIAN; ANNOYED VOICE THAT 'I WILL DECIDE WHAT VECTORS TO EFFECT ARPT SEQUENCING.' I HAD BEEN MONITORING KCAK TWR ON #2 VHF RADIO AND ONLY HEARD 1 LIGHT SINGLE IN THE PATTERN AND 1 TWIN ON 5-7 MI FINAL FOR RWY 23. WITHOUT FOR A HDOF TO THE TWR; I CANCELLED THE INST FLT PLAN AND ACCEPTED A DIFFERENT SQUAWK FROM THE ANNOYED APCH CTLR. I BELIEVE I TOLD HIM I WAS SWITCHING TO KCAK TWR (BUT I DON'T RECALL). WHEN I WAS AT 2500 FT AND 7 NM FROM THE TWR (BELOW CLASS C OVERHANG); I ESTABLISHED CONTACT WITH THE TWR CTLR AND ASKED FOR CLRNC FOR THE VISUAL APCH. AT NO TIME DID I PENETRATE CLASS C AIRSPACE UP TO THIS POINT. HIS RESPONSE WAS; 'HOW DID YOU GET OVER ON THIS FREQ?' I TOLD HIM I'D CANCELLED INSTS AND JUST SWITCHED OVER WITHOUT PROMPTING. HE TOLD ME TO RETURN TO APCH CTL FOR SEQUENCE AND CLRNC INTO CLASS 'C.' WHEN I RE-ESTABLISHED RADIO CONTACT WITH APCH; HE TURNED ME TO A 090 DEG HDG (AS PUNISHMENT FOR MY RADIO BREACH). THERE WAS AT LEAST 5 MI SEPARATION FROM TFC ON FINAL AND I STATED THAT I HAD THE VISUAL. STILL; HE DROVE ME OUTSIDE OF THE OM BEFORE HE LET ME HAVE THE VISUAL. WHILE BEING VECTORED; HE BADGERED ME ABOUT MY PROCS AND THREATENED ME WITH A COMMENT ABOUT A 'POSSIBLE DEV.' HE INSTRUCTED ME TO COPY A PHONE NUMBER DURING A RATHER CRITICAL PART OF THE FLT. I THOUGHT HE WAS UNCOOPERATIVE; SPITEFUL AND PETTY. I CALLED PER THE INSTS AFTER LNDG AND WAS TOLD BY HIS SUPVR THAT HE WAS 'GOING TO PULL THE TAPES AND FILE A 'DEV RPT.' HE ACCUSED ME OF NOT UNDERSTANDING CLASS C PROCS.
