Narrative:
While following an light transport making an extremely wide pattern, I turned final about a mi behind him and heard him call back taxiing to clear active, runway 31. Was into the evening sun and I thought I saw him turn down runway 3. At about the moment of touchdown I saw the light transport stopped on the runway, facing me. I turned off at first taxiway and at no time was closer than 2000 ft horizontal. I also believe the pilot of the light transport stopped deliberately to make me go around because I comment on the radio about this improper pattern at a non controled field. Any other time, I would remain clear and land only when I was sure the runway was clear of traffic, but I honestly thought it was at this time.

Title: SMA ATX ACFT PERFORMS LNDG ON OCCUPIED RWY.
Narrative: WHILE FOLLOWING AN LTT MAKING AN EXTREMELY WIDE PATTERN, I TURNED FINAL ABOUT A MI BEHIND HIM AND HEARD HIM CALL BACK TAXIING TO CLR ACTIVE, RWY 31. WAS INTO THE EVENING SUN AND I THOUGHT I SAW HIM TURN DOWN RWY 3. AT ABOUT THE MOMENT OF TOUCHDOWN I SAW THE LTT STOPPED ON THE RWY, FACING ME. I TURNED OFF AT FIRST TAXIWAY AND AT NO TIME WAS CLOSER THAN 2000 FT HORIZ. I ALSO BELIEVE THE PLT OF THE LTT STOPPED DELIBERATELY TO MAKE ME GAR BECAUSE I COMMENT ON THE RADIO ABOUT THIS IMPROPER PATTERN AT A NON CTLED FIELD. ANY OTHER TIME, I WOULD REMAIN CLR AND LAND ONLY WHEN I WAS SURE THE RWY WAS CLR OF TFC, BUT I HONESTLY THOUGHT IT WAS AT THIS TIME.
