Narrative:
While turning base for landing runway 07, was cut off by commuter aircraft turning base inside of me. Extended downwind leg to allow the commuter to go in front of me. While on 1/2 mi final, another commuter turned base and final on top of me, causing abrupt evasive action on my part. All my turns were announced on unicom including near miss.
