Narrative:

At about 4 mi nne of 2w6, at 2500' MSL, reported the airport in sight, cancelled IFR and changed to the CTAF frequency. Announced position and intentions on CTAF. As I initiated a left descending turn onto downwind for the active runway, the passenger in the right rear seat called traffic at 2 O'clock high descending on a parallel course. As the left turn continued, the right rear seat passenger called the traffic again with, 'he's right on top of us, go down.' I steepened the turn and increased the descent rate. Because of the turn the right side passenger lost the traffic. As the turn continued, they picked the traffic up on the left side of the aircraft and watched him pass over the top of us at approximately 200' sep, according to the passenger. Landing was accomplished west/O further incident.
