Narrative:

I was flying an light transport into lebanon, nh, 8/fri/88. I was in the traffic pattern--left traffic runway 25. I reported left downwind. Was told by the tower to report a left base. I reported a left base and was told by tower that I was in sight and that I was cleared to land on runway 25. Immediately following that radio transmission, the tower received a radio call from an small aircraft who reported over the leb VOR. The tower told the small aircraft that he was #2 to follow an light transport in a left base (my aircraft). I turned final and proceeded to land. I never saw the small aircraft. Evidently the small aircraft did not see me until he came to within a reported 100-200'. The visibility was 5 mi in haze and the sun may have obscured visibility somewhat. Perhaps the small aircraft should have reported to the tower he did not have me in sight or the tower should have asked the small aircraft if he had me in sight. I am filing this report upon hearing that the small aircraft is filing a near miss report and I wanted to give my version of the events that took place.

Original NASA ASRS Text

Title: NMAC.

Narrative: I WAS FLYING AN LTT INTO LEBANON, NH, 8/FRI/88. I WAS IN THE TFC PATTERN--LEFT TFC RWY 25. I RPTED LEFT DOWNWIND. WAS TOLD BY THE TWR TO RPT A LEFT BASE. I RPTED A LEFT BASE AND WAS TOLD BY TWR THAT I WAS IN SIGHT AND THAT I WAS CLRED TO LAND ON RWY 25. IMMEDIATELY FOLLOWING THAT RADIO XMISSION, THE TWR RECEIVED A RADIO CALL FROM AN SMA WHO RPTED OVER THE LEB VOR. THE TWR TOLD THE SMA THAT HE WAS #2 TO FOLLOW AN LTT IN A LEFT BASE (MY ACFT). I TURNED FINAL AND PROCEEDED TO LAND. I NEVER SAW THE SMA. EVIDENTLY THE SMA DID NOT SEE ME UNTIL HE CAME TO WITHIN A RPTED 100-200'. THE VIS WAS 5 MI IN HAZE AND THE SUN MAY HAVE OBSCURED VIS SOMEWHAT. PERHAPS THE SMA SHOULD HAVE RPTED TO THE TWR HE DID NOT HAVE ME IN SIGHT OR THE TWR SHOULD HAVE ASKED THE SMA IF HE HAD ME IN SIGHT. I AM FILING THIS RPT UPON HEARING THAT THE SMA IS FILING A NEAR MISS RPT AND I WANTED TO GIVE MY VERSION OF THE EVENTS THAT TOOK PLACE.
