Narrative:

I was en route from caster, wy, to ogden, ut, when I decided to buy additional fuel in rock springs before crossing the mountains. Busy flying the airplane. No frequency on the sectional chart. Mislaid my facility directory so I called FSS on field on frequency 123.6 published on sectional chart after trying 122.8 plus other frequencys with no response. I mistakenly asked flight service for the appropriate unicom frequency. They promptly advised me in a scolding way that 122.95 was published in facility directory. I announced my intentions on that frequency, entered a left-hand pattern for active runway 27. Upon touchdown an small aircraft 'buzzed' my airplane. He flew over the top of my aircraft less than 50' away. He then executed a steep (60 degree plus) 360 degree turn at less than 200' AGL and landed on 27. Upon meeting the pilot face-to-face on the ramp, he advised me that he worked for flight service and that he buzzed me for missing the first taxiway turnoff and being on the wrong frequency. He then threatened me, and a lineman for the FBO stepped in to keep him away from me. Callback conversation with reporter revealed the following: reporter said that FAA was not pursuing the matter, and that he had not learned anything additional regarding whether the other pilot was an employee of the FSS or not. Reporter suggested that sectional charts specifically list the CTAF since unicom frequencys are available in the airport/facility directory and are not particularly useful in-flight information any longer.

Narrative: I WAS ENRTE FROM CASTER, WY, TO OGDEN, UT, WHEN I DECIDED TO BUY ADDITIONAL FUEL IN ROCK SPRINGS BEFORE XING THE MOUNTAINS. BUSY FLYING THE AIRPLANE. NO FREQ ON THE SECTIONAL CHART. MISLAID MY FAC DIRECTORY SO I CALLED FSS ON FIELD ON FREQ 123.6 PUBLISHED ON SECTIONAL CHART AFTER TRYING 122.8 PLUS OTHER FREQS WITH NO RESPONSE. I MISTAKENLY ASKED FLT SERVICE FOR THE APPROPRIATE UNICOM FREQ. THEY PROMPTLY ADVISED ME IN A SCOLDING WAY THAT 122.95 WAS PUBLISHED IN FAC DIRECTORY. I ANNOUNCED MY INTENTIONS ON THAT FREQ, ENTERED A LEFT-HAND PATTERN FOR ACTIVE RWY 27. UPON TOUCHDOWN AN SMA 'BUZZED' MY AIRPLANE. HE FLEW OVER THE TOP OF MY ACFT LESS THAN 50' AWAY. HE THEN EXECUTED A STEEP (60 DEG PLUS) 360 DEG TURN AT LESS THAN 200' AGL AND LANDED ON 27. UPON MEETING THE PLT FACE-TO-FACE ON THE RAMP, HE ADVISED ME THAT HE WORKED FOR FLT SERVICE AND THAT HE BUZZED ME FOR MISSING THE FIRST TXWY TURNOFF AND BEING ON THE WRONG FREQ. HE THEN THREATENED ME, AND A LINEMAN FOR THE FBO STEPPED IN TO KEEP HIM AWAY FROM ME. CALLBACK CONVERSATION WITH REPORTER REVEALED THE FOLLOWING: REPORTER SAID THAT FAA WAS NOT PURSUING THE MATTER, AND THAT HE HAD NOT LEARNED ANYTHING ADDITIONAL REGARDING WHETHER THE OTHER PLT WAS AN EMPLOYEE OF THE FSS OR NOT. REPORTER SUGGESTED THAT SECTIONAL CHARTS SPECIFICALLY LIST THE CTAF SINCE UNICOM FREQS ARE AVAILABLE IN THE ARPT/FAC DIRECTORY AND ARE NOT PARTICULARLY USEFUL INFLT INFORMATION ANY LONGER.
