Point taken EastMids - I should know that. I think what is happening at the grass strip I fly from is that the runways are physically very wide (about 45M, I think), but only the centre 18M is oficially runway - off to eaither side and you're on the taxiway. This would explain the 'multipule landings' I described.

Having said that, I now realise that many of my early attempts at landing were probably on taxiways

As for the right of way, I'd stick my neck out and say that since he was still on the runway he was technically still landing and so had right of way as the lower of the 2 aircraft. Quite happy to be proved wrong again though.

Sharpshot, didn't mean to imply you weren't on the runway, just that the other guy may have thought you weren't.
