There's no excuse for that sort of behaviour... the very worst kind of airmanship. From your post I assume he must have had you in sight, but still chose to cut inside, creating a very dangerous situation for both of you, requiring you to go missed. I hope you chatted this individual. IMO this sort of behaviour would be reason enough alone to ground the individual for a lengthy period to allow him the opportunity to contemplate the error of his ways.
