C177 PLT RPTS NEAR MISS WHILE LNDG AT L71.

Narrative

PLANE #1 AND PLANE #2. PLANE #1: I WAS ON APCH TO LAND. I JUST STARTED MY FLARE TO LAND WHEN PLANE #2 FLEW OVER THE TOP OF ME; CUT ME OFF AND LANDED IN FRONT OF ME. I TOOK EVASIVE ACTION AND TURNED TO THE N; ADDING FULL PWR AND 10 DEGS OF FLAP; MY L WINGTIP PASSED OVER THE LNDG THRESHOLD. I ESTABLISHED A POSITIVE RATE OF CLB AND MADE A 360 DEG TURN. REENTERED THE LNDG PATTERN AND LANDED. THAT IS HOW CLOSE I CAME TO LNDG. THERE WAS NOT ENOUGH ROOM TO LAND BEHIND PLANE #2. I WOULD HAVE RUN INTO HIM ON THE GND. I FOUND THE OWNER OF PLANE #2. THE FIRST THING HE ASKED; 'DID I CUT YOU OFF?' PLANE #1 REPLIED: 'HELL YES; YOU DID.' PLANE #2 REPLIED; 'I DIDN'T SEE YOU.' PLANE #1 ASKED; WHY HE DIDN'T HAVE HIS PAX LOOKING FOR OTHER PLANES. PLANE #2 SIMPLY REPLIED 'I HAD ELECTRICAL PROBS.' CLRLY SHOWING THAT HE DID NOT HAVE CTL OF HIS PLANE NOR DID HE UNDERSTAND THE ELECTRICAL SYS IN HIS PLANE. PLANE #1 ASKED; DO YOU HAVE A HANDHELD RADIO ON BOARD? PLANE #2 REPLIED' YES.' PLANE #1 ASK; 'WHY DIDN'T YOU USE IT TO MAKE YOUR CALLS?' PLANE #2 REPLIED; 'I HAD ELECTRICAL PROBS?' AGAIN; CLRLY SHOWING HE DOES NOT HAVE THE KNOWLEDGE AND EXPERIENCE TO BE A PLT. IN MY BOOK THIS PERSON HAS VIOLATED 2 OF THE FAA RULES. FIRST A NEAR MISS; BECAUSE WE WERE STILL FLYING. THE SECOND; HE FLEW OVER ME AND LANDED IN FRONT OF ME ON THE RWY; CAUSING ME TO TAKE EVASIVE ACTION. PLANE #1 WAS THE LOWER PLANE IN A LNDG FLARE. BY YOUR RULES; PLANE #1 HAD THE RIGHT-OF-WAY.
