Pilot of a beech 35 taxied onto active non controled airport runway and took off causing a globe swift pilot to go around. However, the globe swift pilot demonstrated his aggravation by making a very low and close pass by the B35 as it was on takeoff roll and initial climb.

Narrative:
I taxied onto runway 20 wvi and made the appropriate call on 122.8 just as the globe called that he was turning onto a base for the same runway. I expedited my departure so as to allow the swift to land. However, he did not square his base and made a point of angrily doing a go around low and just above my right wing, dangerously interfering with my takeoff rotation. He then pulled left, holding down and slowed so as to interfere with my takeoff and initial climb, all the while complaining that I had caused him to go around. I feel that this sort of 'road rage' activity is totally out of place at any airport, especially at our very busy uncontrolled facility. Going around due to poor airmanship or any other event should not be cause to prove ownership of 'right-of-way' by using showy maneuvers to bolster the argument.

Title: PLT OF A BEECH 35 TAXIED ONTO ACTIVE NON CTLED ARPT RWY AND TOOK OFF CAUSING A GLOBE SWIFT PLT TO GO AROUND. HOWEVER, THE GLOBE SWIFT PLT DEMONSTRATED HIS AGGRAVATION BY MAKING A VERY LOW AND CLOSE PASS BY THE B35 AS IT WAS ON TKOF ROLL AND INITIAL CLB.
Narrative: I TAXIED ONTO RWY 20 WVI AND MADE THE APPROPRIATE CALL ON 122.8 JUST AS THE GLOBE CALLED THAT HE WAS TURNING ONTO A BASE FOR THE SAME RWY. I EXPEDITED MY DEP SO AS TO ALLOW THE SWIFT TO LAND. HOWEVER, HE DID NOT SQUARE HIS BASE AND MADE A POINT OF ANGRILY DOING A GAR LOW AND JUST ABOVE MY R WING, DANGEROUSLY INTERFERING WITH MY TKOF ROTATION. HE THEN PULLED L, HOLDING DOWN AND SLOWED SO AS TO INTERFERE WITH MY TKOF AND INITIAL CLB, ALL THE WHILE COMPLAINING THAT I HAD CAUSED HIM TO GAR. I FEEL THAT THIS SORT OF 'ROAD RAGE' ACTIVITY IS TOTALLY OUT OF PLACE AT ANY ARPT, ESPECIALLY AT OUR VERY BUSY UNCTLED FACILITY. GOING AROUND DUE TO POOR AIRMANSHIP OR ANY OTHER EVENT SHOULD NOT BE CAUSE TO PROVE OWNERSHIP OF 'RIGHT-OF-WAY' BY USING SHOWY MANEUVERS TO BOLSTER THE ARGUMENT.
