How would you say the intentions though?

"Too close for missiles...switching to guns."

I had that happen to me one day I was #3 in a 3-ship returning. #2 went
around to clear #1, while an Apache was waiting in the runup area.

Just as I was about to turn short base-to-final, the Apache took the
runway. I radioed, "Apache, what are you doing?" Apache: "Taking off."

I was tempted to slip down and stick my wingtip in his lap but put
discretion ahead of valor.

Do you fly a RV?
