Narrative:
Pilot of aircraft approached runway at airport downwind, made high speed low pass, pulled up steeply, turned back to runway and landed into the wind. I was passenger in right front seat. Pilot did not ask me if such a maneuver was acceptable to me nor did he ask me to perform any duties. A biplane crossed our path above as the pilot was making our turn to the field.
