Narrative:

I was cleared to land on orf runway 5. Behind me was an airliner; also cleared to land. I asked to land long to avoid wake turbulence from an air carrier which landed before me. Tower agreed. As I passed over the displaced threshold and between taxiway A4 and runway 14/32; I encountered the turbulence I expected (perhaps the 30 degree crosswind over the terminal was the cause). Then the airliner starts asking where I am and tower doesn't reply. I land about taxiway B and tower tells me to expedite exit on taxiway G. As I do; tower tells the airliner I'm no factor and I look back at the airliner flaring over the numbers. I say; 'geez;' to myself and the airliner says; 'wow;' on the tower frequency and something else along the lines of; 'good thing or it would have got expensive.' clearly tower misjudged how slow I approach and land and got the airliner too close behind me. I may start warning towers about my approach and landing speeds in similar circumstances. Note: reason I wanted to land long is that about 6 weeks earlier with a similar crosswind and behind a small jet; I encountered severe turbulence near my 'normal' touchdown zone near taxiway a. So I was trying to avoid a repeat of that sobering experience.

Title: A LSA landed on ORF Runway 5 and because of the aircraft's slow taxi speed an air carrier aircraft landed on the same runway before the LSA cleared to a taxiway.
