Narrative:

I called brainerd CTAF when 6 mi (as measured by GPS) from the airport, reported on downwind leg, turning base, and turning final. A bonanza took off while I was on downwind, another aircraft was behind me in the pattern, and another entering the pattern. I heard conversation between the air carrier crew and the FBO. No acknowledgement of my xmissions. The air carrier announced, 'taking the active and departing runway 23.' (the GA traffic was at the south end of the airport on runway 30.) I was on short final for runway 30. I delayed my go around too long. As soon as the saab made his move, I should have announced my go around. I subsequently did apply power and leave the pattern. The air carrier crew was audibly upset, as was the FBO. The air carrier had to abort his takeoff (thankfully), but did announce the next time, 'we're taking the runway in 30 seconds and departing runway 23.'
